Rio

Today, we meet Rio, a mom of an 11 year old daughter. Rio walks us through how an online predator found her daughter Sophia, befriended her, and manipulated her. Sofia thought she was in a relationship with a girl her own age, not an adult man. Fortunately, Rio and her husband found out what was happening before the predator could find a way to meet Sophia in person. CARE House, the local child advocacy center, provided specialized counseling for both Sophia and her parents, as they worked through the trauma of what happened. This episode is a few minutes longer than the others in this series, but contains important information for parents whose kids are online. The "It Shouldn't Hurt To Be a Child" Podcast is narrated by Karen Newman, and is made possible thanks to the generous support of Sheryl Hauk.

Lisa

Lisa is a successful business professional, and she shares her story with us. She traveled frequently for work, and employed a babysitter who, in essence, became part of the family. The babysitter eventually got into a serious relationship, and her boyfriend was also welcomed in to Lisa's home. But eventually, his behavior crossed a line. Lisa makes several important points in this interview. Abuse in any form can be extremely traumatic for a child, and it happens everywhere - regardless of a family's socioeconomic status. And when a child survives abuse, the specially trained counselors at Child Advocacy Centers, like CARE House of Oakland County, can make a big difference. In this candid conversation, Lisa reflects on her and her daughter's journey, what she's learned, and why she's such a vocal evangelist for CARE House. The "It Shouldn't Hurt To Be a Child" Podcast is narrated by Karen Newman, and is made possible thanks to the generous support of Sheryl Hauk.

County Prosecutor Karen McDonald

Karen McDonald, Oakland County Michigan's prosecutor, has been on the front lines fighting child abuse for years. Prior to her current role, she's been an assistant prosecutor, family court judge, and worked in private practice. In our conversation, Prosecutor McDonald gives us real world examples of the valuable partnership between her office and the County's Child Advocacy center, or CAC - Care House of Oakland County. We also discuss the value of therapy dogs, what it takes to prosecute disturbing crimes against kids, and why McDonald's own mother's story has inspired the work she's now doing.

Ben

Child abuse happens everywhere. It happens to girls, and it also happens to boys. Today we introduce you to Ben. Just a warning - his story can be hard to hear. When Ben's mother remarried, her new husband began abusing Ben when he was just 7 years old. The abuse was psychological, and turned physical on many occasions. Ben shares what it was like to go into "survival mode" as a child, and how that has affected him well into adulthood. Through a close relationship with a child in his life (his nephew), and his volunteer work at CARE House of Oakland County, Ben has come to terms with his abuse, and offers some powerful advice for other survivors.
