Parents, at this point, I want you all to note that some children don't tell when someone is sexually abusing them because some parents can be very 'TOUGH' and the children - extremely scared of the backlash from the parents. This is indeed a very delicate issue that must be addressed with the utmost self-restraint, maturity, and caution!

Ans: 👉
- The abuser will continue to abuse you and threaten you the more.

- You could be physically harmed and your life could be in danger
- You could contract diseases HIV/AIDS, please, kindly explain more on this to them.

Ans👉 Don't go anywhere without your parent's consent.

AN IMPORTANT NOTICE
kindly take note of the following actions which these young ones accused some parents of ...👇
👉Watching films where kissing & other intimate action occurs ......
👉Dressing up in their presence.
👉Bathing them together in the bathroom, either same-sex or opposite-sex ( very wrong)
👉 Sometimes leaving them naked in front of other siblings.
👉Entrusting them with people.
...and so on.
Please, take note of all these and avoid them and other similar unhelpful practices.
Conclusively, 🙏🙏🙏🙏, please let everyone be vigilant in looking after our kids.
We must never be negligent regarding them and also know that No one may be trusted with our kids. But, since you cannot always be with them all the time, please do review the session with them at least every month.
This will immunize them against becoming victims of terrible predators waiting out there to prey on little innocent ones.
May the Almighty God protect us all and our families from evils. Amen
*THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME*
