"I think back to when I was a little girl. If only I knew how to not be afraid to tell someone that bad things were happening to me. What other choices in life might I have then made?"-Abbie Clark The first years of a child's life are truly the most crucial ones. Children learn trust, build self confidence, self worth and discover their own sexuality. Negative events during these early years will affect how a child perceives their world for the rest of their life. So much of a young person's happiness and success hinges upon the events of their childhood. Abbie Clark knows first-hand the damage caused by unreported transgressions. Way Down Yonder in the Paw Paw Patch is designed to help children (ages 2-8) recognize and find solutions to inappropriate touching.
