Hey everybody. It's Jessica and I wanted you a very quick video
- 00:06 - 00:09
about the latest article on my blog,
- 00:09 - 00:12
fashionably ill. The U. R. L. Is just my name.
- 00:13 - 00:18
Did you know that april is National child abuse prevention month.
- 00:19 - 00:21
So the latest author.
- 00:21 - 00:22
But I would
- 00:23 - 00:25
I have several contributing authors. But
- 00:26 - 00:32
I have a new article written by anonymous and it's about I learned a lot from it.
- 00:32 - 00:34
It's about
- 00:34 - 00:36
the different kinds of child abuse.
- 00:36 - 00:41
What the signs are, what we as adults can do, how we recognize this, how we respond.
- 00:41 - 00:44
So anonymous talks about
- 00:45 - 00:47
physical abuse, emotional abuse,
- 00:48 - 00:49
sexual abuse,
- 00:50 - 00:54
financial abuse neglect and online abuse.
- 00:54 - 00:59
This is an important topic and the person who wrote it
- 00:59 - 01:03
does more justice to the subject than I could ever do.
- 01:03 - 01:09
So I'm going to include a link to the article below in the preview box. Again the U. R.
- 01:09 - 01:11
L. Is Jessica Jimeno dot com

The other thing I have a video that I did in the past and it's a book review of
- 01:20 - 01:25
this book I buy for all the Children in my family for their parents to read to them.
- 01:25 - 01:31
It's called I can play it safe and it's really on all of us, all the adults in society
- 01:31 - 01:33
to stop child abuse.
- 01:33 - 01:38
Unfortunately we see widespread institutional failure everywhere
- 01:38 - 01:41
and I can play it safe gives Children
- 01:41 - 01:47
an age appropriate vocabulary so they can recognize the signs they can come to you.
- 01:47 - 01:51
If you're the parent the guardian or another adult in their life
- 01:52 - 01:54
they can come to you for help because it's very hard to ask
- 01:54 - 01:57
for help when you don't have any words to ask for help.
- 01:57 - 01:58
Anyway.
- 01:58 - 02:00
It is on all of us.
- 02:00 - 02:02
And if you haven't read my blog before,
- 02:02 - 02:07
it's called fashionably ill and I can't believe we're coming up on 10 years.
- 02:07 - 02:12
I write about serious things and and funny things. Um
- 02:12 - 02:15
Yeah, I can't believe it's 10 years fashionably ill.
- 02:15 - 02:22
And the tagline is surviving pain with style and humor.
- 02:22 - 02:25
And I'm referring to physical and emotional pain.
- 02:25 - 02:29
I talk about chronic health issues a lot like
- 02:29 - 02:35
my this the videos on my Youtube channel chronic health, mental health pain,
- 02:35 - 02:40
stuff like that and child abuse is a mental health issue.
- 02:40 - 02:41
That's why we need to talk about it.
- 02:42 - 02:46
And I'll see you all later. I just wanted to do this quick video.
- 02:46 - 02:52
Um I have some great contributing authors over the years on my blog and I
- 02:52 - 02:57
really think this is one of the most important things that we could talk about.
- 02:57 - 02:58
Thanks everyone.
- 02:59 - 03:00
Have a nice day.
