Buku Kanak-Kanak Yang Tak Senonoh

Miki tak tau buku ini tajuk apa, tapi, korang baca sendirilah. Seram Miki nak bacakan.
Everybody thinks we're really happy, but I'm not. Dad is always working and when he's at home, he screams a lot. That really hurts me.

Mum cries sometimes because she doesn't know what to do. Then she holds me , telling me about her unhappiness and problems. Its makes me feel very uncomfortable and strange. I really wish my Dad would spend time with me instead of screaming and yelling.

My Uncle Pete comes over sometimes. He lives with us every now and then. He is really kind to me, holding me, listening to me and making me feel loved. One night when he was holding me, she started touching my private parts. Over time, he taught me to touch and play with his. It felt strange, scary and a little good too. He told me it was OK, that this means he really loves me. This went on for several months. He told me, "This is our special secret."

Mom and Dad would fight. I thought they didn't love me. Maybe they fought because of me? When I became a teenager, I started feeling really different from the other guys. Some of them called me names like "Sissy", "Faggot", "Queer", "Horno". I didn't know what they meant.

After a while, I went to a counselor for help and advice. I told him my story and that I thought I was gay. He said I wasn't gay. I just missed my Dad's love and was taught taught wrong by my uncle.

He said it was very bad that my uncle did to me. He should never have touch my private parts, or have me play with his. The counselor said that it wasn't my fault, that my uncle took advantage of my need for Dad's love. He explained that because I didn't experience affection with my father, that now I was looking for closeness with other boys, to fill the need for my Dad's love.

I felt so relieved. He said he would talk to my parents and help them understand. He said he would also contact Uncle Pete and make sure he got help. The counselor explained to my Mom and Dad about my struggle and need for Dad's love. He told them of my confusion about being gay. He told Dad that I needed his TIME, TOUCH and TALK.

Mom and Dad went to the counselor who helped them love each other more. They even stopped fighting, well, at least most of the time! My counselor and I meet with Uncle Pete. I told him how much he hurt me. He cried and asked me to forgive him. That helped me a lot.

Now I realize that I'm not gay. Spending time with my Dad really healed my heart. All I needed was his time, touch and talk. Finally, I am happy at home.

Apa komen korang tentang buku kanak-kanak ni? Best?
Macam mana agaknya reaksi Ibu dan Ayah bila baca buku ini? Sanggup tak agaknya mereka bacakan buku ini untuk anak mereka?
Agaknya apa korang nak buat kalau ada budak datang kat korang dan tanya, "What is a private part? Can I touch your private part too?"  korang nak jawab apa?
Apa nak jadilah dengan sekarang ini?
