What Will You Do When Your Child Is Sexually Abused or Raped- Because You Failed To Protect Him or Her with the right information?

Dear Parent/Guardian,

This is a letter that is not like any you have ever received or I have ever written. My subject is not pleasant, but it is serious.

My subject is Child Sexual Abuse.

If you have a child between the ages of 3 to 18 years of age; If you leave your child in the care of relatives, neighbours, domestic servants, drivers and other care givers so that you can focus on your 9 to 5 job; If you live in Nigeria; then this letter may be one of the most important letters you will ever read in your life!  Ask yourself:
  • Do you really know the people in daily contact with your loved little ones?
  • Do you know the child minders at the local day care center?
  • Do you know the baby-sitter you employ?
  • Do you know who your children hang out with in or after school?
  • For single mothers with young children, how about that charming new 'daddy' to your children?
There is actually an alarming increase of the number of minors abused each year. In fact, every child, no matter how young, is vulnerable to child sexual abuse. Sexual abuse of children has become a global pandemic. A United Nations Report shows that in recent years over 150 million girls and 73 million boys under the ages of 18 are sexually abused every year.

This report gives thinking parents a course for concern. It should engender a responsibility for protecting children in every parent. Until now, there has been one major thing parents ‘do’ to deal with this dreadful issue of child sexual abuse (CSA): They can pray or hope that their child will not be molested or raped or sexually abused.

Unfortunately, ‘Hope’ is not a strategy! You will need to fortify your child with systems that can protect him.

Most sincerely, I urge you to read my letter carefully. It describes a plan that helps protect you against the danger of child sexual abuse. It helps to protect you against having the future of your precious one marred or destroyed by an ‘incident’ that could have been avoided if only you the parents had prepared him or her!
And yet the cost of this plan of protecting your child from the horrifying experience of child sexual abuse is low.

Why do you need to know about this? This couldn't happen to your child, right?
Unfortunately,  ANY child is at risk of sexual abuse. Hoping... denying.... pretending.... that this can't happen to your child is not lowering your child's risk of being sexually abused, and it does not prepare them to get help quickly and effectively if the worst does happen.
The reality of Child Sexual Abuse is a terrifying concept - but it is something that every parent needs to face because knowledge is power. The fact is that nearly every incident of sexual abuse is preventable, with simple steps that parents can take. Though parenting is the toughest job out there, it is also the area where one gets the least expertise.
What makes it particularly challenging is the fact that society looks forward to entrusting every child's safety and protection to the parents. Thus, parents should know first-hand how to deal with any kind of child problems and issues, including sexual abuse. This plan of protecting your loved one is embodied in an e-book, ‘Protect Your Child from Sexual Abuse in Nigeria’.  that will show you: 
The harsh realities of child sexual abuse in Nigeria,
•explain the pain that child sexual abuse causes and the false beliefs that child sexual abuse create,
•how to recognize the warning signs
•How to keep a child safe from sexual abuse
•Who sexually abuses children?
•How and where abusers gain access to children
•Steps to healing where sexual abuse has already happened
•Celebrities that have survived child sexual abuse
• The nongovernmental organizations in Nigeria (and their addresses)
 that can help you deal with child sexual abuse when it has happened.

In fact, if you are parent desirous of seeing your child safe from the devastating consequences of child sexual abuse, you will need this e-book because a lot of research went into the publishing of this e-book.
