What Do Child Molesters Look Like?
Rhonnie say's:
Have you ever wondered what a person who physically, sexually or mentally assaults children looks
like?  Most of us have a picture in our heads of some creepy, monster-type, who  you  can spot  a
mile away.

Statistics show though, that the Average Male who sexually abuses children is a mirror image of the
Average American Male.
The Abel and Harlow Child Molestation Prevention Study and the 1999 U.S. Census Statistical Abstract.

So, to put the statistics into words:  Child Molesters are very similar to  the average  American  Male
in  most  ways!  They   are  equally  married,  educated, employed   and  religious  as  the  average
American Male population.  Furthermore, each ethnic group  has child molesters among  them  and
again, the percentages bear a close resemblance to the U. S. Census.

Does this mean that the average American Male is a Child Molester?  No, but  it does mean that  the
child molesters among us are virtually invisible.  That is a scary thought.  Pair that with the statistics
showing that 10% of child sexual assaults are committed by strangers, but  a  staggering 90%  are
committed  by family  members  and  known  acquaintances,  and  that's  enough  for  almost  any
parent to not want to let their children out of their sight.

According to
The Stop Child  Molestation  Book,  by  Gene  G.  Abel,  M. D.  and  Nora  Harlow,  it  is  
estimated  there are
42  MILLION   adult   survivors of  child  molestations,  and 3  MILLION   children  
currently  being  sexually  assaulted  in  this  country,  and  for  every  one case  of
CHILD SEXUAL
ASSAULT
 reported  to  the  authorities, there  are  at  least  TWO  that  go unreported.

Child Molestation is an
EMERGENCY.  With such staggering statistics, and an invisible enemy, many
parents are left wondering: "How can I protect my child"?

The answer is
EDUCATION and the COURAGE  to apply it!   Educate  yourself  and  then   educate  
your children.   Knowledge  is the  key to end the epidemic of child Molestation.

YOUR knowledge is worthless if you don't apply it!

You must have the same  
COURAGE  our children  have  when  they  come to  us  and tell on their
perpetrator,  to  then call  and  
make  the  report  to the proper Authorities ... no  matter  who  the  
perpetrator  is!
 This  seems  to be the most difficult part in Reporting this Crime and
that has to STOP!
