“Not my child.” Every parent says that when confronted with the fact that their child may have been sexually molested by a sex offender. No one wants to believe it can happen, but facts and statistics show that is does. The department of Health and Human services released a survey estimating that child abuse and neglect in the United States nearly doubled between 1986 and 1993. Do you want your child to become a statistic? Do you think that you know all there is to know about sexual predators - sex offenders?
It has been estimated that there are 60 million survivors of sexual abuse in the United States today. The typical sex offender molests an average of 117 victims, most of which never report the abuse, and about 95% of the victims know the abuser. That nice girl that is always there to watch your children, or that nice boy that offers to take your child out to the park - do you really know what goes on? Children can be abused and never let you know - you must watch and notice any erratic behavior. With young children, they may not even know they are being abused - thinking that their friend or relative is older and they must do what they say. Girls are three times more likely to be abused than boys and boys have a greater risk of emotional neglect and serious injury than girls.
We as parents and guardians of children must teach ourselves and others around us what to look for. Children are afraid to say when they are being abused. The sex offender may tell them that they will hurt a parent or loved one - they may tell the child that it is not wrong. Children are trusting, and an adult that is bigger and older must know what is correct. If a child is abused at a very young age, he or she will feel that this is “normal” and endure it. As time goes by and the sex offender gets away with more and more - the child eventually thinks this is the way things are. Long term abuse can lead to several things - fear, guilt, lack of trust, sexually transmitted diseases, repeated sexual abuse when the child is older.
Child abuse, which can also include the physical aspects such as bruises and broken bones is very easy to spot-but sexual molestation is not easy at all to discern. If at any time your child says things that he or she should have no knowledge of, concerning sexual content - LISTEN. Don’t ever ignore a child that you think may be abused - they need to talk to someone or have someone question them. After all, it may not be your child. This time.
