A true Pedophile has to over compensate in being nice to everyone including his peers after doing one of the worst things to an innocent child.

His conscience is only guilty to the fact that he might get caught.

It is not guilt of what he has done.

The over compensation of kindness to the outside world is what helps him feel better.

This is also the way a predator gains trust in the ones he plans to harm.

HELP the victims NOW!

Please stop a moment to think who the victims are. 

Is it you? Someone you love?
If it is a child please help them!
There are many children and vulnerable adults,
who are unable to seek help or to reach out to a loved one or friend.
Children love unconditionally and do not always understand the difference,
therefore endure great pain under abnormal circumstances.
If you see or have suspicions of any child or adult undergoing abuse or neglect,
please call the toll free number below or 911 immediately!
Even if you think it is a non-emergency situation, you might be wrong.
  • Please do not hestitate, it could save a life...
  • Please do not wait, it could take a life...
  • Please call immediately because it may be that emergency!

National Domestic Violence Hotline 1-800-799-SAFE

Are you a victim living in a relationship or dealing with different forms of violence and abuse?

Is this victimization from school bullies, a loved one or is there someone besides you who needs help to break this cycle of abuse?

First, do not be afraid (put that fear aside) if you are in a dangerous situation and need help immediately call 911 NOW! Alternatively, if you know of someone who needs help, please take the first step for him or her and dial the number because this could save his or her life. Many people have overlooked domestic situations where they alone or their loved ones have lived in fear on a daily basis walking on eggs and trying to survive the abuse of others. They feel there might be a disruption in life and not know where to go or if things will get better.

Believe me, (myself as a survivor) it does get better and once the horrific burden releases itself the steps to heal take place. Often times a feeling of weight being removed, a feeling that one has lost something and at first you might feel that too much of a burden was taken away and want part of it back because you feel your being removed from the abuse was too easy. You are so attached to the abuse and honeymoon stages now that you feel it is suppose to be a part of you, your way of life. You feel worthless with low self-esteem with suppressed anger turning to depression. What do you do now? 

You will follow links through this website to receive help. First, if this is an emergency and you have no other way to help yourself or another and feel confused on what to do please pick up the phone and dial 911.

If it is not an emergency, dial this number.. and it is quite easy to memorize.

Dial 211 and you can go to www.211.org and type in your zip code and/or the city that you reside in. This is a network with free information and referral research. Just remember the 3 numbers.

What do we need to do as a society to help our victims?

It is important that somehow as a society we somehow reach to higher limbs and branch out with more resources to help all victims of violent crimes. The challenges at times are being able to locate these victims since many are afraid to open up to the outside world. Some feel threatened, controlled and in fear of abuse or losing their lives while trying to reach out. The biggest fear is the "not knowing" if things could or would get better and somehow the victim feels worthless, alone, and ashamed of what has happened to them.

What can we do as a society to help our victims?

I came across this site and know for sure that there are many victims out there including children who need help. The problem is many of the victims are hidden behind a structure such as organized crime but an organized dysfunctional family environment. There are treatments and people out there and ways to show how to help in shelters, schools and programs available if they can even reach the police, they can help in this way.

So true Mike. This is one of the reasons we are designing this special site. More information is desired to reach out to these victims. It is kind of like the Amber Alert where across the nation it is announced when a child is missing. Our destination is to design a prominent and similar category for Victims of Violent Crimes.

It is people like yourselves that keep inspirational things like these alive. We all need to do what is required to help in (our own way) in our own lives. Time heals pain just as pain makes us stronger.

Hi, the wonders of the world are children. Probably the primary victims. We help them and they will help save the next generations.

The word gets out and we all show up. There was this lady who filled her cup all the way up and it overflowed. Need ideas? This is incredible and will be perfect for the present and future technology on how you help and counsel online Starr. We meet up on facebook sometimes and it has been years since I saw you and you have already done all this for yourself including the education to get there. You will succeed to help the victims in the world and not only in the United States. God bless you for doing this.You are an amazing lady! Keep Going!!!

I have a question about how a person would know if another is a victim if that aquaintance or friend does not open up? If we don't know they are the victim how can we help them? I retrieved your link from Facebook. Thank you!

That is an interesting question Susan. The first thought one might have on this would be to watch for any signs for such abuse or violence. If someone is a victim of abuse he or she may be fearful of certain situations but afraid to open up. If you suspect something like this always inform the abused that he or she is not responsible for the abuse and that they can reach out for help. There are numbers given out in different communities for victims help lines such as a crisis intervention service or 911 that can reach out to someone who is a victim. There may be signs such as bruises or emotional breakdowns or just introverting. However, never assume but do make yourself available to help if needed or if you suspect something like this. Any advice should be taken from a crisis counselor or professional and help taken from the police for safety measures.

The crisis a victim goes through is at a very high level of pain. There is nothing anyone who has not gone through this can do to change what a victims feels. Great site!

There is one concern I always had, when someone is afraid to turn for help and they lean toward family for help...usually these are people they can trust but what if they are afraid to confide in anyone because they are afraid they will turn the situation into the authorities? This is a situational thing right? One might think.

Another situation is when a loved one cannot speak up for help and they need someones help so desperately yet to find they cannot do anything for them. Examples are loved ones committing suicide because those are the worst kind. Family feels guilty about why and what if they could do something to help them? Concerns came to me after seeing Andrew Koenig take his own life. He was a famous actor and loved by many but neither that or anyone could help him. They simply didn't know.

That is true. Too many people from youth to the elderly take this path without getting help.
