"A Child Has No Voice," is a heartbreaking true story about her parents struggles, their hardships, and failed attempts to make a better life for themselves and their children. Failures that led to sexual abuse and at times abandonment starting at age 5. This young couple constantly faced overwheming challenges brought on by limited education, family dysfunction, mob ties, gambling and alcoholism which created constant chaos in their family. This young couple had no role models or mentors to teach them, resulting in their poor decision making which placed their children in jeopardy and exposed them to unspeakable cruelty, abuse and at times abandonment. The young child in this story knew intuitively many of the things she saw in her life as they unfolded were not right, yet having been told a child should be seen and not heard and not knowing who to go to or what to say, she knew A child has no voice. |
