Tyler Perry Writes Open Letter to Penn State Abuse Victim

November 28, 2011 By Staff 1 Comment

Tyler Perry has a spot in his heart for the victims of the recent sex abuse scandal at Penn State University. He has issued an open letter to the 11-year old who spoke out first and brought the scandal into the public eye. The letter is below:

I don’t know your name, but I know your face. I don’t know your journey, but I know where you are. I am your brother!

I must tell you, what you have done is so courageous. The strength that it must have taken for your 11-year-old voice to speak out about such a horrible act is something that I didn’t have the strength or courage to do at that age.

that was a good think that Tyler did to let the boy know he isn’t alone. I hope this hasn’t damage him mentally. and he gets the help he needs in the future. Parents have to be so careful when you let your children be with adults who want to be their mentors. Now don’t get me wrong every adult male or woman isn’t out to molest children. But you have to introduce good touch and bad touch to children at a early age. Andfor them to tell know matter who it is!!!!
