Dedicated
This book is dedicated to all those children and adults
who have been sexually assaulted, mentally and physically.
You are a survivor and you are to be commended.
Dear Parents,
I wrote this book in hope that you will help our children stay strong,
by empowering them to use their words – to stay safe. Children
in many ways remind me of a lovely butterfly. They should never
be forced into sexual behavior before they are fully developed, their
mind, body and soul. It can damage them beyond hope. Just as the
butterfly goes through its’ stages of
metamorphosis and emerge into
a beautiful butterfly, so it is
with our children if we allow
them to grow at the natural
stages of development. They
will grow into productive and
beautiful adults.
Now listen up children “Just Say No”. What do you
mean? said Anthony.
Mom said to Anthony, I need to talk to you and your sister
Kathy. “A bout what?” said Kathy. About just say no.
When walking to school, a stranger wants to give you a ride
or say, “Hey! Kid come go with me I’ve got a puppy, I will
let you play with him” – Just say No!
At the playground someone may say “Come here –
I’ve got a candy”. What do you say? Just say No.
They touch you in a private place and make you sad
and cry. But you can use your words.
If a person touches in a scary way – and make you
feel sad or sick inside- Just say, No.
It can happen at a neighbor’s
house or a friends. At a birthday
party. If they touch in the private
place- Say No!
It’s called sexual abuse -It can happen with
anyone even a parent grandparent aunt uncle.
Sometimes it may be a close friend or even a
stranger.
Sometimes grown-ups get mixed up and
confused. They hurt in a way you don’t like.
But you can use your words to stay safe. Tell
them no. Just say no is a good word when
someone is trying to hurt you and trick you, in
a way that you don’t like. You can always talk
to a trusted person.
You can always talk to a trusted - teacher,
doctor, aunt, uncle, mom and dad.
You see said mom. I want you to be happy, strong and
safe. That’s right, Mom you’re the greatest, said Kathy.
