Daddy’s girl, pride and joy she is beloved even though they have a boy.He always makes time for a goodnight kiss and that bedtime story surely there is no harm in this.
Daddy’s princess daddy’s love she the gift from heaven above. He loves to bath her and brush her hair he makes it extra special when mummy is not there!
Her brother is jealous he does not think it is fair that daddy does so much more with her. She does not seem so happy she does not want to play and she even insisted mummy give her, her bath today.
Daddy’s little angel, daddy’s pride and joy she is off her food and is throwing her toys and getting so annoyed. Mummy finds her crying in the corner once or twice but when mummy asks her why she says it is a secret and it is not very nice.
Daddy’s girl, daddy’s special girl kneels to say her prayers , mummy passing by the door, what she hears sends mum’s mind in to a whirl.

“Please Lord I am tired and it hurts too much please make daddy stay away it hurts when he uses his special touch.Please Lord I do not like secrets especially those that make me sick. I wish I could tell mummy the things I have to do he says all special girls do it but I don’t think that is true. OH! please can you help I don’t know what to do daddy says if I tell mummy she will not believe it is true.”
Mummy’s little girl, mummy’s special girl is her poor baby being misused her whole life begins to unfurl.!What is she to do her poor child in such pain…….. no, no, no contest he will not touch her again!

Abuse of a child by a parent or a close relative is insidious. It is hard to spot hard to discover and it can rip families apart. Please please be aware it does happen . Often parents do not believe their children and it just makes it all the more painful.
And another Poem for Child Abuse Awareness Month.
