June 27, 2007

• Talk with your children.
  
  
• Know where you child is, and the people they spend time with.
  
  
• Screen baby-sitters, coaches and other care-givers.
  
  

• Be sensitive to changes in your child’s behavior.
  
  
• Spend time with your kids!
  
  
• Listen you your children and pay attention if they don’t want to be with someone.
  
  
• Notice anyone who provides or gives special favors to your child.
  
  
• Tell you children that it is always wrong for adults to engage children in sexual activity.
  
  
• Teach your children they can say NO to anything that makes them uncomfortable.
  
  
• Remember that 90% of the time a child who is molested, is molested by someone they know… focus on people you know as well as “stranger danger.”
  
  
• Knowledge is power – teach your children about their bodies and their right to control their private parts.
  
  
• Trust your instincts…if a person or situation is making you uncomfortable, get away, even at the risk of appearing rude.
