Lexi Koster , a Child Life Specialist and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, says that parents should be careful how they talk about protecting their children from sexual abusers.
She says parents should refrain from telling their children that if they are touched inappropriately, they will take action against them, whether it means physical harm or getting the law involved.
Eighty-five percent of child abuse victims never report their abuse, and a big reason is that they are afraid of harming their abuser.
Koster says there are five red flags parents should look out for.
" Fourth is exhibiting behaviors where they're exerting some sort of control over a child" "They might do this in order to make you feel guilty for bringing it up in the first place" "Trust your gut. If someone feels off or too good to be true, they probably are".
