  • Bonus Minisode #10: Kendall Doss
    Sep 27 2025
    In this bonus minisode, which was originally released for Patrons only in February 2022, you’ll hear the story of 18-month-old Kendall Lynn Doss, a precious little girl with blonde hair, her daddy’s brown eyes, and the chubbiest, most adorable cheeks you might ever see, who fell prey to the temper and disgusting urges of her mother’s fiancé. This story is horrific, infuriating, and gut-wrenching, but Kendall deserves her story told. I originally told Kendall’s story on sufferthelittlechildrenblog.com in 2020.Photos related to today's episode can be viewed (free) on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/62225334 You can also follow the podcast on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sufferthelittlechildrenpodTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@STLCpodMy Linktree is available here: https://linktr.ee/stlcpod Visit the podcast's web page at https://www.sufferthelittlechildrenpod.com.

  • Episode 204: Long-Term Effects of Child Abuse (with Kate Russell)
    Sep 23 2025
    Research has long shown that child abuse and neglect can and often do lead to a wide range of negative effects on a person’s life, including mental, physical, and behavioral problems. This kind of treatment during childhood causes stress that alters the way the child’s brain develops, affects gene expression, and changes the body’s stress response system. Kate Russell is the author of three memoirs about her life, describing her painful experiences in detail, from living with a schizoaffective sister to suffering addiction and subsequently recovering. Her most recent book, Ironing Out My Life: Child Abuse and How It Affected Everything Thereafter, is the third in the series and tells the story of her parents’ upbringing, then hers, and the impact their abusive behavior had on her life.Kate is a strong, intelligent, highly resilient survivor, and it was my honor to speak with her for this episode.

  • Episode 203: Child and Survivor Advocacy (with Dale Margolin Cecka)
    Aug 31 2025
    If you’ve listened to this show for any length of time, and most likely even if you haven’t, you know the US legal system all too often fails domestic abuse survivors, especially women, children, and adolescents. My guest, Professor Dale Margolin Cecka, knows it all too well.

    Professor Cecka is an advocate for women, children, and teens who have survived domestic abuse. Not only that, but she’s also a law professor, former Superior Court senior staff attorney, former Assistant Attorney General of Georgia, and the Director of Albany Law School’s Family Violence Litigation Clinic.

    For this episode, I talked with Professor Cecka about her experience and expertise, and many related topics. I think you’ll enjoy this fascinating conversation as much as I did!
