Why are there so many of us out there?
Because we are taught to be silent, and the subject is taboo, it is no wonder we lived in shame our whole lives. Silence is Poison to us. Society breeds Forgotten Girls because they don’t understand, and they don’t want to understand because the subject matter is either too hard to bear or they think it is not appropriate for any given situation.

The more guns and knives are used to hurt people in fun or media is just another way to desensitize us to hurt others when we are older, and aren’t thinking. I know. I was a victim to all of this.

All from people who still refuse to believe I was hurt because they know these wonderful people. Stop this pain for the Forgotten Girls. Everyone can do it.
The Question is how can just one person make a difference?? Think about everything you do. Make a change today. For a Forgotten girl.. For you. For Me. For all of us.. Find her, find him.. Help next time. Don’t be silent. Act. Do. Be. Live. Breathe … Don’t let anyone become Forgotten..
The Forgotten Girl may not change millions of lives, it may not change your life, but it did change mine. In doing so, it will change my children’s lives, my grandchildren’s lives, and it will change generations to
