Child Abuse Survivor Available in Apple News

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

If you’ve already updated your iPad or iPhone to iOS9, Apple’s newest release, you may have noticed something called Apple News, which is Apple’s attempt to give you a pretty, magazine-like, interface to read your favorite sources in. Similar to what Flipboard is on mobile devices. Well, if you want to check out Apple News, might I suggest checking out this site’s channel?

You can find it by clicking the link below on any device with Apple News.

As of right now, the images aren’t showing up, but I hope once Apple moves publishing out of beta and releases some formatting tools, that I’ll be able to correct that. In the mean time though, all the posts from this blog, and the News and Reviews blog, can be located there!

Just showing up for life every day requires effort and dedication from everyone you know. The amount of effort and challenges are different, and they are not distributed equally. You shouldn’t dismiss anyone’s struggles, especially if you’ve not been in those same circumstances yourself. 

    Some things have to be experienced to see all the details. When someone is willing to share the details of their challenges, listen and learn. Raise their voices instead of assuming you know the answers. 

    Experience is a hard teacher. We all can learn the lessons from those who’ve lived it.

    It’s holiday time here in the US again. We’ll be traveling later today and spending Thanksgiving with the in-laws. Should be nice to spend some time down there with them. But being with family isn’t what I want to talk about today, it’s being thankful. It may not seem like, as an abuse survivor, there’s…

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 4 minutes

    I’ve had some recent opportunities to sit down and have coffee with some people who have worked in child abuse prevention and treatment and do fundraising for those efforts. I’ve already been creating some blog posts out of things that came up during those conversations because they were that good. Still, there was one particular…
