I wanted to share this wonderful review I recently received on my second book “Father Figure – My Mission to Prevent Child Sexual Abuse”. It made my day:
“Sumi Mukherjee is an amazing man. I met him at a “Children’s Network Conference” as he was speaking on the topic of bullying. I have just finished reading his book, “Father Figure” Sumi’s true story of trying to save 2 sisters from sexual abuse. Many people don’t realize that predators reside as neighbors, uncles, boyfriends, grandfather’s even fathers. This book is very spellbinding and keeps you on the edge of your seat as you don’t know what is going to happen. It brings about awareness that your children can never be too protected and to keep them safe. Also, it makes you realize that as mothers, we need to keep our eyes open and inform our children that their body is sacred and no one should invade that. Teach them “to tell someone”. I admire Sumi for writing this wonderful book and I look forward to his next one.”
The most important thing about this review is that the reviewer points out a few of the key messages discussed in my book:
- Many people don’t realize that the abuser can be someone who might be within the family circle or a close friend or relative
- Children can never be “too protected”
- Children must be taught properly about this issue
