According to the 2019 Child Maltreatment Study found on childwelfare.gov, 74.9 percent of victims suffered neglect, 17.5 percent suffered physical abuse, and 9.3 percent suffered sexual abuse.

King; this book is written for a generation yet to be created so when they arise, they will know absolutely no obstacle can stop them and no matter the adversity, you can STILL make it.
