Would your child know what to do in a bad situation?
Abuse is rampant. And we can’t “gated community” our way out of it. Most of us learned Stranger Danger when we were children, yet national data informs us that over 90% of children today know their abuser. Estimates suggest that one in four girls and one in thirteen boys experience contact sexual abuse before turning 18, and only 10% of children tell. The median age of child sexual abuse is only 9 years old. One in three women will experience violence in a relationship during her lifetime.
