[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am horrified reading the R Kelly thread. I have no experience with childhood sexual abuse, but I am a single mom to a young child and the thought of what some children have experienced sickens me. What are behaviors that parents like me should watch for? What conversations are appropriate at different ages? My daughter is 5, very social and friendly and affectionate and I’m always telling her about stranger danger. [b]She once climbed into a cousins lap with so much ease it made me uncomfortable, and I redirected her - but what if I weren’t around?![/b]

Aside from trusting your gut, what can you do to empower and prevent abuse or ward off pedophiles?

What do you tell your Young’s children?

And what about dating, after time, when you’re ready to intro kids and life partner. How do you set boundaries when you are getting serious with a person and thinking of introducing them to your kids - how do you know whether these people would ever do anything? This is why so many of us, we swear off dating or marriage after divorce!

Incredibly sad to think about, but I want to open the discussion for insight. I have a zillion questions.[/quote]
