He appeared to be asleep, with his face and body turned toward the back sofa cushions. He was completely undressed. He must have heard her come in, and knew that she was standing there.

He told her to come closer. She did. He took her hand and put on his … “private part.” It was so quite in the house. She couldn’t breathe. His smile became even wider, even stranger. And then … he let her hand go. He said, “go change your clothes and go out and play.” She ran to her room, closed the door, changed clothes hurriedly, and then ran through the kitchen and … out the back door.

Please look for the signs. Trust your own instincts. And, protect your children. Don’t rely on them to tell you something is wrong. They won’t, unless you have talked to them, beforehand. Prepare them. Let them know … before it happens … that they can “tell someone,” no matter who the abuser is. Thank you for reading … and, “caring by sharing.” 11/15/2016 1:13 pm edt AuthorDebbie Barth is on a mission to stop child predators from robbing the innocence of your child. Her book "The Promise Book; Tell Someone" is available here and at Amazon.com. Archives
