The Trauma Myth: The Truth About the Sexual Abuse of Children-and Its Aftermath is a book by Susan Clancy published in 2011.

children describe abuse and molestation encounters in ways that don't fit the conventional trauma model. In fact, the most common feeling reported is not fear but confusion. Clancy calls for an honest look at sexual abuse and its aftermath, and argues that the reactions of society and the healing professions--however well meaning--actually shackle the victims of abuse in chains of guilt, secrecy, and shame.
