[quote=Anonymous]My wife was molested and raped as a kid. One of the incidents happened at a sleepover. Another happened kind of fast at a playdate where her friend's older brother made her go down on him. I've dated a number of women who've shared horrific stories of things that happened to them. I was totally on board when my wife said that she didn't want any playdates or sleepovers. I know the statistics, but it's not a risk I'm willing to take. We weren't graphic, but we explained to our daughter that some people do things to kids, and it would be safer to wait until she was in high school. She's nine now. She's had the more graphic sex talk, and we went a little more detailed into what rape and molestation were. She connected the dots with playdates and being mindful of strangers. [/quote]
