Inhaltsangabe

Protecting children starts with clarity—not fear or myths. “Stolen Childhood” is a plain-language, evidence-informed guide to the science of pedophilia and the systems that keep children safe. Written for general readers, parents, educators, and new professionals, it explains complex research without jargon and keeps the focus on prevention, ethics, and accountability.

Inside you’ll find: what DSM-5-TR and ICD-11 actually say (in clear English); how to distinguish sexual interest from criminal behavior and why that distinction matters for policy; the motivation–facilitation framework for understanding offending risk; grooming patterns online and offline; practical prevention in homes, schools, youth programs, and digital platforms; trauma and recovery across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood; and a non-prescriptive overview of treatment and risk management used by trained professionals.

You’ll also learn how risk is assessed in plain terms (static and dynamic factors, plus protective factors like supervision, routines, and social support), why some statistics differ across studies, and how institutions turn “paper policies” into daily practice. The book includes a concise glossary and selected APA-style references so readers can verify claims and explore further.

Tone and content are non-graphic. The aim is informed action: better language, better boundaries, and safer environments for children—without sensationalism.

Educational use only. This book does not diagnose conditions or provide medical, psychological, or legal advice, nor does it replace professional care. If someone may be at risk, contact local child-protection and law-enforcement services immediately.
