The #1 Thing You Can Do Is Build Your Relationships & Speak into Your Children.
Familial trafficking is very dangerous. Often times sexual exploitation happens through a family member, teacher, coach, or boyfriend. Victims don’t speak up about it until years later because they don’t know they’re being manipulated and exploited.
Questions to Ask Yourself:
-
Do you know who your children’s friends are? Who do they interact with at school, and who do they talk to?
-
Do you know the parents of your children’s friends? Have you shared your heart to protect your children with your friends, family, and anyone your children may spend time with?
-
Have you honestly identified if there is any pornography consumption in your household?
-
Have you identified critical indicators in your child that may make them a soft target for a predator to groom?
-
Have you talked with your children about true love and the purpose of sex age appropriately?
-
Have you as a family proactively invested in healthy relationships between all family members?
-
Are you building a trustworthy and honest relationship with your children where they know they can come to talk to you about anything and everything?
-
Have you had a real conversation to identify whether your children have experienced abuse?
