TESTIMONIES “This book is
uncluttered and insightful. I was relieved to find that it didn’t include
testimonials or grotesque details of the actual act of pedophilia, since this
is unnecessary”. “I was further
gladdened that I did not have to relive any unbearable childhood memory in
order to get to the meat of this book. At one point, it actually enlightened
me about where my emotional maturity was initially crippled”. “I found hope as I
became more knowledgeable about this friendly enemy, exposed as a spirit that
creeps through generations, hiding itself in secrets and acts of darkness”. “My biggest fear is
that one of my children would fall prey to this evil. In order to deal with
this enemy, we must expose him. Lord, help me to do this. I believe this book
is effective and grateful that the author is compassionate and delivers a
clear message from beginning to end. Lorraine Fast defends our most treasured
ones, and not without love for the enemy. In this way, she certainly heaps
many coals upon his head”. (A Victim of Child Sexual Abuse) “Finally, I know how to talk to my children about sexual
abuse and the dangers of trafficking. The Friendly Enemy Books are perfect
for parents to use for this dreaded task. The Children’s and Adolescent
Workbooks are simple but thorough. Thanks for these books”. (A concerned Parent) “My hope is that The Friendly Enemy
Books will be successful in helping to stop this thing from happening. I was
molested as a small boy and didn’t realize that it would one day surface and
that I would become the “Enemy”. I spent time in prison after I molested my
girlfriend’s twelve year old son”. “My life is different now because I realize
that is not who I want to be. I have to let everyone know what I did so that
even my friends keep me accountable. Even my church knows what I did and that
I need their help to stay accountable”. “These books are very important in the
awareness and prevention of child sexual abuse and my hope is that someday
everyone will read them”. Bob
(A victim and a sexual abuser) “Guilt over my abuse as a young girl
overwhelmed me Thirty years ago when the author brought The Friendly Enemy
Children’s Book to my home. We were and are best friends, but she, nor anyone
else in the world, had any idea that I had been a victim of the very thing
she had just written about in that little book”. “As I read the first page I could only
get up off my chair and run into my bedroom, hide in a corner and cover my
face in my hands. Once I was able to compose myself I told my whole story to
my dear friend who is now like a sister to me”. “Through this work I have come to
realize that this was not a problem that is unknown to literally millions of
children and adolescents around the world”. “If one child finds a voice in today’s
world it is worth all the effort put into these books”. “Thank you for giving me and all
children the opportunity to know we could “TELL” someone; and to hear,
“It’s not your fault”. “Most importantly, when my step father,
the man who victimized me, grew old I heard that he was a victim of
Alzheimer. I am a Registered Nurse so I went to see what condition he was in.
When I saw how helpless he had become I was filled with compassion. I began
to remember all of the good times we had as father and daughter and the pain
of the bad times began to fade. They will always be there in the back of my
memory, but I was able to bring him into my home and care for him until the
day he died”. “Forgiveness is the key to healing from
sexual abuse. I was able to turn the bad side of all that had happened over
to a higher power to judge. Though the memories still lingers, I can drown
them out with the fact that I have lived a good life with a wonderful husband
for 40 years and have four wonderful children of my own”. “To this day I am a real advocate of
The Friendly Enemy Books”. Sincerely, Vickie Abbott “The Friendly Enemy Education is one of
the best sets of curriculum available to create awareness and educate
children, teens, and adults about the growing epidemic of child abuse and
exploitation in our global society. Dr.
Angel Duncan Our Angelik “After visiting “There once was a child by the name of Angelik who
only wanted a glass of safe drinking water.
Do any of us know the price we would pay for a glass of water? Our
Angelik paid the price”! “Dr. Rick was in “I can still see the small children
standing along the dirt roads outside their one-room shacks--shacks without
windows, electricity, or running water. It is quite common for these
shacks to house 8 or 10 people--or more”. “These children, lined along the roads
outside of their homes, had nothing at all to play with. Their only toys
were rocks and sticks. I didn't see one baby
doll anywhere for a little girl to hold and love. I didn't see
one ball for a little boy to kick or throw”. “We made a difference for these children.
