Courage - A spiritual Journey to Self with AÏYKA

A small wildflower that has met the challenge of the rocks and stones in its path to emerge into the light of day. 

This little seed did not know what was going to happen? The seed has never known the flower and the seed cannot even believe that he has the potentiality to become a beautiful flower.

When we are faced with difficult situation we have a choice: we can either be resentful or we can face the challenge and grow.

Rencontre avec Georges Bossous Jr. sur les abus sexuels contre les enfants

Georges Bossous Jr. est un Psychothérapeute et fondateur de l'organisation humanitaire, «Word and Actions, Inc.» qui est aussi enregistrée en Haïti sous le nom de «Parole et Action Pour Haïti». Le bus de l'organisation vise à réduire la fréquence des abus sexuels sur les enfants aux États-Unis et en Haïti.

Les abus sexuels contre les enfants, un sujet tabou dans notre communauté, aujourd'hui Georges va nous en parler.

Mais savez-vous que plus de 90% des enfants victimes d'abus sexuels connaissent leurs agresseurs. Cela signifie que moins de 10% des agresseurs sont des étrangers.

Les enfants abusés sexuellement qui gardent le secret ou qui ne sont ni soupçonnés peuvent être plus exposés que la population générale à des problèmes psychologiques, émotionnels, sociaux et physiques qui durent souvent jusqu'à l'âge adulte.
