About this product

Product Information

Stop abuse before it starts!Identifying Child Molesters: Preventing Child Sexual Abuse by Recognizing the Patterns of the Offenders will teach you to better protect children from potential child sexual molesters long before any abuse can actually occur. Here you'll learn to recognize and understand the seemingly invisible steps that typically precede child sexual abuse. These stories of molesters, their families, and their victims, will enable you to more accurately see through a potential molester's charming demeanor and better protect the children in your life. Understanding the behavior that molesters often exhibit when trying to obtain access to children is essential to protecting children from their advances. By becoming familiar with this terrain you will find the courage and strength to decide what must be done, and the skills to follow through with the necessary actions. Such responses will appropriately curtail an offender's access to children and subsequent opportunities to molest.Identifying Child Molesters will teach you: how to recognize those who might molest how molesters typically 'charm'adults how societal attitudes help to foster child sexual abuse what to do when encountering a potential molester what physical and emotional damage molestation can cause to victims how to graciously avoid potentially dangerous situations Identifying Child Molesters: Preventing Child Sexual Abuse by Recognizing the Patterns of the Offenders clearly spells out the techniques that child sexual molesters so successfully use to charm adults into giving them access to children. When these strategies are seen and understood, adults can take much more direct responsibility for preventing child sexual abuse than was previously possible.Anyone who lives or works with children needs to own this book. The information you'll encounter in Identifying Child Molesters might startle you, but it might also help you save the life of a child!

Should be required reading for every parent!!
I bought this book on the recommendation of a crisis center case worker. I am so glad I did! Before I finished the book, I knew where the blame lay in my daughter's case. It really helped me identify where my husband and I had been snowed, just as our daughter had. If I had read this book before, this never would have happened to my family! Sexual predators are abundant in this world, much more so than most people want to believe. The numbers, horrible as they are (1 in 4 girls and 1 in 6 boys are molested before the age of 18!), I believe are much higher in actuality. There are way too many that go unreported, especially in the case of older teen girls. They are written off as tramps, or even as normal sexually active teens! I believe this book should be required reading for every parent, BEFORE their children have a chance to be molested. You can keep your kids safe, without being paranoid or rude - just keeping healthy boundaries for you and your child, and being aware. Read it and share it - I bought 2 and started the 2nd one through my group of friends. Even the teen girls are reading it - it's just a sound and healthy attitude toward life. It will help you learn about boundaries and how to stay safe!Read full review

Useful & Informative
This is a very valuable book that provides a great deal of information in a readable format. Should be useful both to clinicians and to people who are concerned about the characteristics of child molesters. Talks about grooming the child, the parents, and the community to accept problematic behaviors without questioning. Much more readable than the typical "professional" book so it is not a struggle requiring coping with multiple citations in every paragraph.
