Summary
This is a book written for the average person by a parent who has witnessed the darkest side of life. It contains real world examples of adults preying on children. The author is not a doctor or psychologist, but just one man who has spent most of his life investigating crimes against children. Each of us must make ourselves aware of the Red Flags that indicate our children are, or about to be sexually assaulted. Child sexual abuse is a life altering event for not only the victim, but also those around him or her. It is the hope of the author that the readers of this book will become more in tune with their own individual behavior and the actions and behaviors of others, including other children. Whether you are a parent, school employee or any other adult who has a supervisory position over a child, you have a paramount duty to protect that child as well as ALL children. This includes making yourself aware of the warning signs or Red Flags relating to inappropriate relationships and then reporting any evidence of these to the appropriate authorities in the most expedient manner possible. The intent of this author is not to teach the reader to be an expert in identifying sex offenders, or to provide a detailed analysis of the psychological profile of the offenders or their victims. It is merely meant to help the reader gain a better understanding and a heightened sense of awareness into the actions and behaviors of those who interact with our children. We should never have to ask, "What did I miss?" or say, "Oh, that's just the way he is." We must all learn to be more proactive in recognizing these inappropriate behaviors before it is too late. As adults, we all have a duty and obligation to protect those who cannot protect themselves.
