Most parents believe they are vigilant in making sure their kids are kept safe from pedophiles, but sex crimes prosecutor Stacey Honowitz is here to say otherwise. The Broward County Florida prosecutor has been fighting for victims of sex crimes for more than 30 years, and she understands the complete playbook molesters use when scouting out young victims.
In this episode of the Modern Divorce Podcast, she shares with host Billie Tarascio the ways abusers insinuate themselves into the lives of young people to take advantage of them, sometimes right under the nose of a child's parents. How to stop it? She details the key ways to help children and parents recognize the bad guys, and take action against them when necessary.
Stacey has written fun and simple books parents can read to their children to help them understand how to set boundaries, including: My Privates are Private, and Genius with a Penis, Don’t Touch. These books make it easy for parents to comfortably and frankly discuss inappropriate touching with their children and teach the importance of speaking up and reporting abuse.
