Child Sex Abuse Survivor’s Open Letter To Her Molester
On Friday, May 17th, 2010-Amanda Rodgers was sworn in as an advocate for abused and neglected children involved with the juvenile court system. As a CASA volunteer, Rodgers completed 35 hours of training, but her credentials for compassion come from life experience.
“I was step-daddy’s little sex toy, and a prisoner in the one place that I should have been the most safe and protected,” explains Rodgers. “I didn’t have anyone there for me, but I have vowed to be there for others. Even if I can help just one child, and be their voice, they will know they aren’t alone.”
Amanda Rodgers took pen to paper, and wrote an open letter to the man whom she alleges repeatedly molested her, stole her innocence, and denied her a childhood. She shared it with me, and with her permission, I’m sharing it with you. Brace yourself.
