I believe the best way for kids to be protected from sexual predators is communication and education. There is also self esteem of the child. We need to teach our children, which I did with mine, that any inappropriate touching, suggestive conversation is never OK and to tell an adult, a safe adult, someone who will help you. right away but most of all your parents (praying the children have responsible, good parent themselves) They are the safe adults who will handle the situation, this helps to take the stress and the guilt and fear from the child or even young adult. Children are not born with the all knowledge to figure out every scenario in life. They need to be taught what to do.

Well, I’m kind of tired of people thinking that single mothers are out here selling their kids off for material goods or chances to succeed in sports. What I know for sure is that not all women, single mothers are out here serving their kids up to sexual predators in fact, I told my boys from a very young age don’t let anyone, male or female touch them inappropriately. And someone tells you they will kill me or anyone they love, tell them “my mom said you could try but she would haunt you till you died,” or “she would come back to life just to kill you.” Meaning I would not stop until I got their nasty butt behind bars or 6 feet under, which ever came first. So no it’s not all single mother that are out here pass their kids around like a blunt to get things or get a man. The media should look in to the lives of those parents that allow things like this to happen and they will most likely see that they themselves may have had inappropriate things happen to them, seen it, or think there is no way out of their situation so their kids are their way out. Stop bulking all single mothers up in a package of “my kids are yours (the predators) to have.” or “my kids will succeed in sports at all cost.” We, single mothers are not all the same.
