Ebook: Smart Parenting for Safer Kids: Helping children to make smart choices and stay safe

This unique book is a practical guide for parents and parent educators to help children stay safe. In typical Professor Freda Briggs style, it is both explicit and realistic, as she draws on a lifetime of knowledge, research, and practical experience to provide helpful information on the myriad issues that worry parents. This book sheds light on several significant issues—the sexual abuse of children, safe use of the Internet, and modern-day bullying.

The memory of sexual abuse in childhood never leaves its victims, even as adults. Many children suffer the shock and powerlessness of abuse, unable to tell anyone about what happened. Those who do tell are often further injured when adults refuse to believe them. The luckier few are immediately believed and protected.
