Parents have been told to give attention to the welfare and progress of their children.
Everyday we hear and watch stories of kids been molested by uncles, friends of family, teachers, brothers,anty's, guards, house boys and drivers etc
This story is been going on and on and on ever since I was a kid and uptil now.if there's really a solution to it am sure it would have been history,But each passing day the occurrence is on the rise yet not much attention has being payed to it.
I believe this is a situation that can't be eradicated completely, However here are some certain ways to minimize the occurrence.
*Form a close bond with your children,let your children be free to tell you anything.
*Encourage your children to talk to you about their day,friends and everything that they do
*Watchout signs: if you notice changes in your child's behavior you need to do something about it.Abuse is not usually as obvious as high fever but there may be some signs that your child is in trouble and needs counseling.
*Warn your kids never to sit on anyone's laps no matter the situation including uncles.
*Avoid getting dressed in front of your child once he/she gets to the age of identifying the body parts,learn to excuse them or yourself.
*It's not too early to talk about sex,parents need educate both boys and girls about sex.
*Most importantly we should learn to interact with our children.
