I was not aware of the exact statistics. It is an alarming number isn't it. I'll check out the site, thanks for posting it.
That is so sad because it causes a life time of problems for the abused.
I know. The statistics are crazy. Rainn has a very informative website. They also have a great page for survivors. The title of my post links to it:)
