Mission Statement

In A Nutshell


This site is dedicated to discussing facts, research, issues, concerns, and topics to aid the prevention of child sexual abuse before it harms a child. This involves many arenas that are not well-known to the average person, and it is a goal to make these arenas well-known and reduce the challenges to the primary prevention of child sexual abuse. Another goal is helping minor-attracted people understand how to manage their attractions without hating themselves or viewing themselves as a risk.

The focus is primarily on advocacy and making unknown facts and research known, and correcting the misinformation spread by the media. The end goal is ensuring that systems and policies are in place that prevent children from knowing the pain of child sexual abuse before it happens, and to change public attitudes towards this issue so that these systems and polices can be enacted.

Advocacy First
This site is dedicated to advocacy. Awareness in communities, discussing facts, and aiming to educate take priority over political activism or protesting. While there are some behind-the-scenes initiatives to make a difference in the political and educational arenas, as well as assist minor-attracted people in understanding their attractions without hating themselves, these initiatives are side projects, not a main focus.

Accuracy First
This site is concerned with being accurate, not only in the language used on this blog and in tweets, comments, or other communications, but in the graphics produced to advocate against child sexual abuse. The focus of TNF 13 will also be to correct language that spreads misinformation about child sexual abuse. If you believe you have found a sentence or phrase that does not adhere to this policy, please use the “Contact me” page.

Safety First
This site is devoted to creating a safe atmosphere to discuss the issues surrounding child sexual abuse. While the topics involved are emotional, the focus will be on an atmosphere conducive to having civilized, respectful discussions around how sexual abuse can be prevented. The focus will be on text and links, not media that can sometimes be upsetting, so that people can stop at any time they wish.

Free Speech First

This site values open discussion of the issues involved in preventing child sexual abuse. If you have ideas, share them. Even so, you are expected to be respectful to other ideas and opinions and refrain from insulting others. Freedom of speech does not mean you hurl insults. More discussion is currently available on the blog, and on WordPress. Feel free to contribute.

Academics First
This site is concerned with the facts, studies, and research around the prevention of child sexual abuse. You will never find an unsupported claim on this site, unless its source is found in the facts section, or it is common knowledge in prevention circles. People are entitled to their own opinions, but not to their own facts. If you believe you have found a claim on this site that does not adhere to this policy, please use the “Contact me” page.

Respect First
This site is devoted to being respectful no matter what the circumstances are, and he will not attack anyone’s character by insulting, belittling, or mocking an individual person. The focus will be on the arguments and statements, not an individual making those statements. However, trolling and harassment will be called what it is.

Critical Thinking First
This site is devoted to creating an atmosphere to generate not only discussions around the topic of preventing child sexual abuse, but also to creating an atmosphere where critical thinking is encouraged. The sources cited for the information being provided should not be taken for granted, and some of the responsibility falls upon you to do your own homework and learn more about the subject.

Effective Policy First

This site is dedicated to supporting policies and systems that are based in fact and are proven to be effective over policies and systems that are based in the hype and hysteria of public opinion. While this site is privately run, it will endorse people, systems, books, and products that further the mission of this site.
