| 2009-07-14 | Kathy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you for your prompt and informative response. I often use Allender's book, so feel that your response has confirmed my direction in this case. I will be mindful of the shame piece, and the emphasis on didactic. Thanks again. |

| 2009-05-17 | Peggy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Great resource suggestions! I have read 2 of them about 20 yrs. ago. Both the definition of child sexual abuse & trouble in the following areas will help when or if the need arises to share this with other children or victims in ministry outreach in Mexico, where I currently serve. |
| 2009-05-04 | daniel | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thank you so much ma'am. Ive never ever in my whole life looked at it as if i was a victim. It brings a lot more questions and thoughts to my mind; though, i feel closer to recovery however far away it is. |

| 2009-02-12 | Drew | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Your selflessness, caring and empathy is more than appreciated. Having even a little direction gives me and my wife an opportunity at a fuller life. In my opinion, if my wife and I don't live a full, healhier life, then she was more than just physically raped, but robbed of a better life, too. With gratitude, and appreciation... thank you. |
| 2009-01-26 | Spyder | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thanks. That's exactly what I needed. (In the screenplay, it's established quite clearly that they already have a rapport prior to the rape.) |
