I sat there clutching my knees Eyes filled with tears I have just been defiled and abused by the most important person in my life Who do I tell? Daddy will not believe me Mummy will say I threw myself at him I just sat there, not knowing what to do I have to die in silence or live to face the stigma if having lured him to RAPE me I have to live with this secret for the rest of my life!!!! Parents, please give listening ear to your children especially the girl child. Treat everything they tell you with all seriousness So many children are scared to tell their parents what they are going through for the fear of being reprimanded and having their parents not believe them SAY NO TO RAPE!!! IT IS 5 MINUTES FOR YOU BUT A LIFETIME FOR HER RAPE IS BAD!!!! From a girl who has been there!!! Written by Emmanuella Ude
