Have to try & trace the article so i could share it indepth with you. To summarise it, the article mainly speaks about educating our young about dangerous people. For infants, we have to alert them in that their body is personal. Should anyone touch them underneath their clothes without their permission, they will have to cry outloud and get attention from parents /someone they trust. There is only so much we can do, to teach them. Your post reminded me of my aunt who was raped and killed, thrown out into the bush about 25 years ago. Apparently, the murderer is someone she knows :( I read somewhere about teaching our children from young (even infant) about situation awareness.

We let down our guard with the people we know or trust, not knowing one of them might just be that big bad wolf. I guess we can't take our safe environment for granted and have to be more vigilant on our young children now, and educate them about how to deal with potentially dangerous situations when they are older. Sceniro planning and role playing games about dangerous people, maybe the father can act the "bad guy". Phoebe, I am sorry to hear the misfortune of your aunt.
