Molested: One Mother's Shocking Discovery

by Audrey Wilson

Molested You're positive you'd know if your husband was a child molester, aren't you? After all, you'd sense something, right? Or your child would tell you. There's no way your child could be molested undetected for years. That's exactly what Audrey Wilson thought - she believed her husband was an excellent father to their two children. He was so attentive, so involved in every aspect of their lives, from changing diapers to buying clothes, and never complained. But his role as a loving, kind, and wonderful father was a well-crafted illusion. In actuality, he was living a child molester's dream. He not only grew his own victim, but bonded with her, dominated her, and had unsupervised access to her tiny body for hours at a time. His true motives were never seen by his trusting wife, who saw only what he wanted her to see. Child Sexual Abuse Believe it or not, it's highly likely that YOU know a child molester. Molesters look like ordinary people. They derive tremendous satisfaction duping people into believing they're normal. The United States Department of Justice states 1 out of 3 girls and 1 out of 5 boys will be molested before the age of 18. Strangely, these numbers provide comfort to parents, leading them to believe their children are not likely to be victims of a child molester. They teach their children about "stranger danger" and "good touch, bad touch" and think that'll keep their kids safe. What they don't understand is that more than 90% of molested children know their molester, and won't acknowledge abuse even if asked point-blank. Shockingly, almost half of molestations are by a trusted relative. "Stranger danger" accounts for less than 10% of all sexual abuse. If that doesn't make you think twice, then think about this - it is estimated that 1 in 20 teenage boys and adult men have molested a child. Chances are, you know a child molester or two. And they don't look like dirty old men, they look like our husbands, fathers, grandfathers, brothers, uncles, sons, and cousins. Female child molesters are significantly fewer in number. Child Sexual Abuse is a pandemic. It's an ugly topic that no one wants to talk about, but the astronomical numbers of adults who admit to being molested are proof a serious problem exists. Estimates of 60 million survivors in the United States alone live with the trauma of having been molested as a child, (survivorsvoice.org) and roughly half were molested by a relative. Incest The main goal of child molesters is to find a suitable child to dominate and control. Child molesters often don't care if their victims are related to them or not; all that matters is access. Relatives are granted unsupervised one-on-one contact with children without hesitation. What better setting could a child molester want for his or her twisted fantasies? Incest is the consummate evil act. It is a betrayal of an innocent child's love and trust. Children molested by strangers can get help and be comforted by their parents; however, incest victims don't have that luxury. Millions are shocked upon discovering a member of the family molested another member. Audrey Wilson was devastated to learn she was married to a psychopathic child molester, who left a trail of trauma, pain, and wounded hearts. She tells her story in the hope of showing non-offending parents just how well child molesters deceive and what to look for to protect the most vulnerable people in society - our children.

Interesting and informative.

As a convicted SO, looking for how my actions may have affected my victim and his family,I found this book to be interesting and informative. Some of her definitions ie, pedophile in relation to someone having sex with a 22year old virgin and a 13 year old who may or may not be pre pubescent, are a far stretch. Also, only some pedophiles sexually engage with adults and children. A lot are only interested in children. I get it, that you feel the way you do about your ex husband. Your book, your story. Hopefully, it helped your healing process. A key item that this book and many others miss is that the offender is someone's son or daughter. One day, that son or daughter could be YOURS! Would you feel the same about them?

I was intrigued by the title of this book.
It's a real heartbreaking page turner that I finished in 2 sessions. What a strong lady to get through all of this.

I believe I would have been devastated if I were in your shoes but with God’s grave and mercy you endured. I am pleased to learn your daughter overcame this and managed to get married and have a child of her own.

Eye opener

This is a eye opener. Tells the truth about what can go on behind closed doors. That anyone is capable of hurting a child.

Informative

While this book is informative for those who have never been in an abusive situation, be it sexual, physical or mental, the monetary references were disturbing to me. As a victim of sexual and physical abuse as a child and as an adult, I find the authors complaints about money and child support offensive amidst the cruelty her child was enduring.I understand the hardships of being a single mother...as I was one...but there are several organizations that he'll in these situations and that should have been the very least of her worried..aside from that I think the book was informative but also suggests that all men are monsters...can not go through life feeling this way..people need to learn how and teach boundaries without suspecting the worst from everyone...

The story of a monster

this was a great book not because of the suffering the children and the mom dealt with but telling their story that could help others that could be in this same situation . They could speak out before it goes on and on.

This book outlines child abuse

This book outlines child abuse in a very relevant manner. The psychological affects/ effects that become " problems " for everyone involved with dealing with any child abuse scenario are actually well described by the author.

Scary that it's based on a true story. Well written, edited and spellchecked. Not light reading, very sad and shocking, covering this awful subject.
