How do I support my child/teen that has been sexually abused?

Treat them the same way as you treated them before. If they need to talk to someone, be there for them and get them a therapist, and if they talk about it, believe everything they say and comfort them. But the most important thing is to see them as your child, not a victim of sexual abuse.

As a victim of sexual abuse the best support I was given was being listened to talking about it made all the difference and was definitely healing. Knowing I could talk to my mum about it without being blamed of judged was the best therapy out there

You need to be there for them, you need to love them and assure them that it is not their fault and that the assault will not end them. Let them know they are safe now and that they are not responsible for what happened and be there for them because it is a tough thing to go through and they need all the support and kindness in this world again.

First of all, let me just say I would never wish that upon anybody. It's a terrible thing. I am a teen and I went through that. It was a very rough thing to go through. I personally just needed time to get through it.. All you can really do is make sure your teen knows you are there for them, and that they aren't alone. Some teens won't want to discuss it because of how.. demoralizing it made them feel. It'll be hard for you and your teen to go through and I am so sorry you had to go through this.
