Quotable Quotes
What Kind Of Person Would Victimize A Child?
People who sexually abuse suffer from emotional immaturity, low
self-esteem, an inability to see harm in their actions and lack the
knowledge to control their impulses. Often the offenders were
victims of child sexual abuse themselves. Many abusers are not
strangers, they are often people of position or power in our lives,
such as, teachers, doctors, baby-sitters, neighbors, parents, peers,
siblings, relatives and clergy.
How Common Is Child Sexual Abuse?
It has been shown that 3-7% of boys are sexually abused by the time
they reach eighteen and 2-5% of girls, on the whole two out of ten
children are victims of abuse. These averages are of course
conservative since most occurrences are never reported.

* Observing Human Behavior Shows You Better Ways To Live
by Sandy Karn
I think observing human behavior is a fascinating thing
because that is where a lot of our life's lessons can be
found. We are such strange creatures sometimes and other
times we are wonderful ones to behold.
In the last couple of years, I have been making a point to pay
attention to other people's behavior and reactions to things.
I have also paid a lot of attention to my own reactions to a
lot of different things and in doing so have made some
decisions how I would like to change some of those reactions.
The key thing here in the observation process is to take
notice of the things you like, don't like, would like to have
more or less of. Stop long enough in events that are going on
in your life to JUST NOTICE. If you don't pause, you may be
running through life doing things and putting up with things
you absolutely don't like, but don't stop long enough to
notice that.
Just Notice! Just Notice! Life will talk to you and tell you
a lot when you pause long enough to listen. Pause, listen and
decide what you want and don't want then take action
accordingly. You CAN make better reactions for you in your
life when you take the time to do it. There in lies your
Optimal Results.
