Content:
Believe Me deals with sexual abuse in a straightforward and nonsensational way. It shows that even sex abuse consists of a wide range of inappropriate behavior and that most sexual abusers are known to the child and can be members of their own family. The video carries some important messages for young people: that sexual abuse can happen to children from all kinds of different backgrounds; that if it does happen it is never their fault; that it's okay to have mixed feelings about the abuser; and that there are some 'secrets' which should never be kept. The video stresses the importance of finding and telling a trusted adult, that help is available and that young people can recover from the experience. The film is suitable for a wide audience, but is primarily designed for use with 9-13 year olds in a class or other group setting with a teacher or group leader. It can also be used with young people in a therapeutic environment and in a training context with adult professionals who work with children.
