"Givin' It Up"
is a story about kids preying on kids.
Ordinary kids whose not-so-ordinary experiences have launched them into
a dark world. It's about the abuse of children by juveniles, many
of
whom have been abused themselves.
Victims to victimizers, prey to
predators, "Givin'
It Up"
explores
the world of juvenile sex
offenders: who they are, what they've done and what
can
be done to break the cycle of abuse.
"This film puts
a human face on sex abuse. I've never seen anything like it before."
David Fair: Dept. of Human Services/ City of Philadelphia
"Best thing
I've seen for teaching about this subject"
Gerard Webste: Forensic Psychologist: MacQuarie Univ.
(Sydney, AUS)
"A must-see
film for people who want to take a real-life look at this important
issue."
