The numbers are staggering: One in four girls will be sexually abused before they turn eighteen, and one in six boys.

It also gives parents a forum to discuss these sensitive issues with their children and find support and help if needed. Some Secrets Hurt includes a guide for parents and suggestions on what to do if your child has been sexually abused.
