Hi Karen,
I just finished reading Switching Time. What a powerful realization on what abuse is. I am twenty, never been abused but have a friend who was. I believe it’s important that people share stories like yours. Switching Time was an educational experience for me. I believe I will be a better friend now that I have a understanding of what abuse can do. Thank you Dr. Baer and Karen.

Dear Kevin,
 
I agree, Switching Time is a powerful depiction of what abuse can do.  It’s important to know what can happen when a child is repeatedly abused.  I’m glad to hear that you weren’t abused yourself.
 
I admire you for acknowledging your friend’s abuse and caring enough to share your thoughts.  You are a great friend for taking the time to care and learn about child abuse in order to be a better friend.
 
Thank you for your compliments and for sharing that Switching Time was an educational experience for you.  Dr. Baer and I truly appreciate hearing from you.  It is my hope to continue to share my story in an attempt to help others with their own journey to wellness.
 
Karen
