Hi all :) We have two new blog posts up on the Choices for Children site at http://choicesforchildren.wordpress.com/
The first is on believing the statements of child sexual assault victims, and the second is on the marketing of pornography and lad's magazines in Australia.

All comments, ideas and perspectives welcome…
