TAKING OFF THE GLOVES
We at S.A.F.E. Network have worked hard to help our followers understand how educating our children against sexual abuse is the most effective way to save them from becoming victims. We have even shared that police organizations such as the FBI, the Office of Juvenile Justice and many more have stressed that teaching our youth how to recognize these dangers and what to do when faced with them is vital to their survival. Response over the years has been luke warm in some segments of our society, so now we've taken off the gloves and want to share the more personal side of the issue of sexual abuse, abduction, and exploitation.

After reading this message, please view the videos on the page linked below, then ask yourself if you can stand silently by and do nothing. Ask yourself also,what if this was my child, my niece, my nephew, my brother or sister, what would I be willing to do then.
Follow this LINK and learn more. See what is really going on out there. Every child deserves to have a childhood without pain, without the
horrors of sexual abuse.
We all have choices in this life. We can choose to close our eyes, ears, and heart to the cries of children all over our land, and across the seas, or we can start today
to do something, anything that will touch the life of even one possible victim.

Whether its donating your time, your money, or just sitting down with your own family, and begin a dialog about how to help your children stay safer when away from you, do it today. After you watch this video, there are more.

Network's Personal Protection Empowerment Programs for grades K-12 along with our New Parent and Teen Parent programs are currently being used on 78 military bases, 59 Native American reservation education centers, and hundreds other youth, police, educational and community groups across 43 of these United States, plus, Puerto Rico and Italy. Our goal is to have these vital protection based life skills being taught to children and teens in all 50 states and thousands more agencies, military bases and community organizations by the end of 2011. We can't be with our children every minute of every day, or stand guard by their beds every night. What we can do is empower them with the knowledge and skills they need to make decisions that can benefit them in dangerous and difficult situations when there is no loving caring adult around to help them make that decision. This is our goal. Our hope is that you will join us in making this goal a reality and help us take back our children's lives from those predator's that would use, abuse and exploit them for their own satisfaction and gain.

The Author's Corner Stolen Childhood An Article by Linda Garner author of Some Secrets Hurt

I returned home from a meeting to
find an unfamiliar cord plugged into the
power outlet in my carport.  Following the cord
led me to repairmen next door who had plugged their heavy duty equipment into my power.  My neighbor wasn’t home, his house was locked, and the repairmen had no access to power, so they plugged into mine.  Since I wasn’t home they didn’t ask.

I wasn’t excited about their creative use of my power and there was some unpleasant discussion.  The men moved their power cord across the street to an unoccupied home.  No one would ever know, no one, except the repairmen, and me.  I don’t know what you would call this, but I call it stealing.  Perhaps the men thought there was no harm in stealing
a little power if it was done in secret.Have you ever had something stolen from you? It can be
a devastating experience, creating sadness, anger, and fear.  If the stolen item had great value to you, you may have been heartbroken.  No matter what the value of the stolen property, you probably felt somewhat violated.

When a child is sexually abused something has been stolen from them; something that cannot be replaced.  I call it stolen childhood.  For an abused child, childhood will never be quite the same.  An abused child may feel sadness, anger, or fear.  This is a crime that is veiled in secrecy.  In fact, secrecy is the abuser’s best friend. 

No parent expects that their child will be sexually abused, yet the frightening truth is that one in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually abused before their eighteenth birthday.Since parents cannot be everywhere, wise parents take opportunities to instruct and empower their children.  Here are some things you should teach your children about abuse.
