Overview

This to the point instruction book explains from the first chapter the essential ideas a parent, guardian or anyone working with children must teach to keep children safe from fear and violence in today's world. This is a straightforward reality-based instruction on the aspects of abduction and molestation prevention as taught by Professor Kenneth R. Haslam, World Martial Arts Hall of Fame Inductee who has been teaching parents and thousands of children over the last five decades. 1 in 5 girls and 1 in 7 boys succumb to sexual assault today, and 1 in 42 children go missing. Over 30% of sexual abuse is with children under 12 years of age. But, this is not a book of statistic or psychology, but a practical guide to what to teach and how. As a busy parent or guardian, you must get the facts and implement the safety tools without the need for hours of research. The work has been done for you. The ideas in this book can be use immediately. While this book is a quick read, every topic associated with abduction and molestation prevention has been discussed. The four steps in the ladder of protection, how to leave a veil of protection that no predator will dare try to pierce when you leave a child with others, how to discuss nudity and sex your way, so your child does not learn things someone else's way, teaching your child without fear, safety on the internet, what to do if your child is lost, what to do if your child is abducted, what are the symptoms to tell if a child is believed to be being molested, fifteen action steps your child must learn to prevent themselves from becoming a victim in the first place. These actions are described in detail, so you know exactly what to teach a child and these actions all come with support tools such as rhymes for little ones to learn. If you touch me I will tell if you touch me I will yell, Adults don't ask children for help, adults ask adults for help, are examples of the many tools a parent can use to teach their child without fear at an early age. More, the ten lures predators use to trick children are not only discussed but how to role-play (another valuable tool) to help guarantee your child understands and will carry out the tasks which will keep them safe. Included are the mistakes parents make every day as parents are unaware of the dangers in places taken for granted to be safe. Also, discussed are the mistakes other instructors teach such as the secret word which is an absolute dangerous tool and should not be used. A scenario-based method of teaching a child is presented to parents so a parent can take random opportunities throughout the day to teach valuable lessons through simple observations of others and quick conversations with their child. Additionally, there are thirty-four guidelines for keeping a child safe from both abduction and molestation. This book was written as the need became obvious as I was teaching children martial arts that preventing abduction and molestation was the reality for self-defense in a child's world. While a child could not physically box an adult there were many strategies a child could learn to prevent abduction and molestation, and none were about martial art fighting skills. This book is not about psychology, social science or theory but the tools I personally have used for over five decades that I taught my four children that I am sure will work and help guarantee the safety of your children.Professor Kenneth R. Haslam Founder of the 360X DEFENSE Smart N' Safe Children's Program and has taught thousands of children and adults over his five-decade career in reality-based martial arts. He is also the author of C.A.R.E.S., Children's Action Response and Escapes Skills, how to escape predators once it gets physical and the soon to be released book B.R.A.V.E., Bully Response, Attitudes, Value, and Empowerment.
