Children Quote by Stephen A. Mitchell

““Davies and Frawley believe that while the child may be a passive victim of the original sexual abuse, the child’s subsequent active elaboration of his or her situation through various fantasies, including reparative longings for magical helpers and identifications with the abuser himself, is also a complex aspect of the problem.””
