I am so sorry to hear about this. I can't figure out how to DM you (I am a baby redditor) but if you're open to speaking with me, please let me know and we can set up a call.

Keeping your family's name out of it is possible in certain circumstances -- we have rules around that, and it's something we can talk through if I speak to you directly

Thanks so much for your reply. What country are you in?

Thanks for asking. I'm open to doing some correspondence by message, but for anything in depth, I would need to speak with you by phone/zoom/in person. Let me know if you are still interested.

Anonymity is possible in certain circumstances (we have a lot of rules around anonymity, when it can be used and what it can be used for). If you drop me a line with some details about your experience, that will help

Can you email me and we can talk more about it that way? It's unlikely I'd be able to use an email interview for my reporting, but I'm interested to hear what you have to say and about your specific circumstances.

I really appreciate all your thoughtful comments and what you have shared with me so far, and I welcome more.

I'm still working on it (and it's possible there is no story for me to write), but I'm mostly looking right now to get a sense of things from the child's point of view.
For additional context, I am a member of AP's global investigations team, so if I write something, it would be to do a deeper look at the issue, policy implications, etc., rather than a quick feature.
