  • A MINOR ATTRACTED PERSON TALKING about how hard it is to live with that attraction: Date: 1st August 2017: Phone In
    A StopSO client who contacted James O’Brian on LBC Radio
    James O’Brien labelled this brave call from a man who is attracted to young girls “one of the most important I’ve ever taken”.  As James was discussing whether child sex dolls could stop paedophiles abusing a youngster, John called up with one of the most remarkable stories ever heard on LBC.
    He revealed that he is attracted to young girls, but has never acted on it.
    John said: “I will look and I will think, but then I will stop because I have a strong set of morals. I have very strong self-control.  It’s ruined my life. I hate myself.  My therapist is concerned that I’m a danger to myself because of my self-hatred.”
    “I find your courage quite breathtaking.”

  • MORE THAN ONE CHILD IS SEXUALLY ABUSED EVERY MINUTE, IN THE UK.  This is based on NSPCC figures. 
    There were 73,518 police recorded offences including rape, online grooming and sexual assault against children in the UK in 2019/20.  The Children’s Commissioner say that only 1 in 8 children report. 
    73,518 x 8 = 588,144 / 365 = 1611. 
    That is 1,611 children a day, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  There are 1440 minutes in the day.  So more than 1 child a minute is sexually abused in the UK.
