well i was an unfortunate mother, who was told a secret by my daughter, but then again, i'm not unfortunate in one way, because she told me.. i was always sure to ask my little one.. "if anyone ever touches you.. you make sure you tell me"
and when my little one was in kindergarten she told me about her uncle, doing some rather odd things to her. I was in total shock, as her uncle was only 13.
13 yrs old and doing things like this.. i dont know about most people but i never would have imagined something like this happening.... i was always weiry of
older men but not so much with other children.... my advice here would be to always make sure your children (Boys and Girls )always know that they can come to you and tell you anything, Anything at all. God knows how far it would have went if i hadnt been told...
Signs to look for :
*Withdrawal from normal activities.
*Changes in appetite.
*Nightmares
*Acting out, in ways that are unusual for your childs nature.
*Talking about things that your child, would not know about.
And one more thing, dont ever leave your child in a situtaion where something could happen, not even for five minutes...
AND ...ALWAYS trust your own instincts.... they are usually right....
