  46. Zay Naz

    What stops families seeking help from specialists services?

    • Jahara Abellera Solaiman

      Zay Naz It’s the culture of shame and silence on certain things that stops them. They don’t realize that the longer they delay in seeking help, the worse the problem could become, and there might be some dire consquences. They’re scared that their community would know, and are afraid that seeking such help would point out that there’s something wrong with the family (image is everything, folks! Especially in ASIAN families) and might ruin family members’ ( especially daughters) chances of marriage, etc.

  47. Mariam Maryamti

    Feel like i wouldnt be able to protect kids if i had them

  48. Mary Smith

    Yes,I was attacked by a girl friend when I was little.horrible

  49. Sadia Swarna

    That’s where we do our mistakes by not believing our kids

  50. Zay Naz

    Do you think approaching imams about this issue is the best way forward? Is it going to achieve anything?

  51. Raeesah Sumun

    Beware of women also

  52. Muna Mohamed

    Asc, unfortunately, our community are in denial.
