Why do abuse survivors remain silent? The Torah, meant to protect, is twisted to hurt. Education on life-saving lessons like swimming or crossing streets is crucial. Why shouldn't abuse be openly addressed for protection? #AbuseAwareness #SurvivorStories #ReligiousTrauma #SpeakUp #MentalHealth

I'm shocked that every single victim and
survivor of sexual abuse
even still believes anything.
Why didn't every single person that was
abused go off the derech according to
them?
Why?
We're using the same Torah
to hurt them. The Torah that's supposed
to protect them that says lo tisama
By the way, lifnei iver applies when you
cover up when you protect an abuser and
then he does it again, it's lifnei iver
also.
The Torah teaches me that I was abused I
got to shut my mouth. So the Torah can't
be real.
I'm shocked that every single victim and
survivor of sexual abuse
even still believes anything. I'm
shocked.
And the work they do they work on
themselves and they
It's unbelievable what kind of we don't
give them enough credit.
What what are you saying to these people
who say this is a topic that needs to be
spoken on Shabbos, not on camera, and

When a kid goes to kindergarten
and they're crossing the street with the
mora,
right?
How does that process go?
They have to hold hands. In some places
the mora has a stop sign.
But they're all told
this is for your life.
They're actually kids are told AT 5 6 7
YEARS OLD if you run into the street you
can die.
They might not know what die means, but
they're certainly scared of it, right?
When a kid starts learning how to swim,
right?
We put them in the pool, right? We work
with them. Start by using the board,
start this, but we teach them.
Did anybody ever say to themselves, wait
1 second, stop. We can't teach them how
to swim because they might jump in on
purpose and kill themselves. We can't
teach them how to cross the street
because they're going to run into the
street. No, cuz that's part of
education.
All of a sudden it comes to something
that can destroy their entire life, all
of a sudden
we bring it up it's going to make more
people What? More people, Mishka? No.
The reason why is because people want to
skirt their responsibility.
At the end of the day,
is it the parents' responsibility? It
is. It is. It is important.
>> But how much can parents already do?
