Going beyond “Stranger Danger”

Friday, July 8, 2011 by Michelle Stafford, DDS

You also may have missed out on understanding how your child truly views a “stranger” and how you can help empower them to say no or fight back if they are ever approached — and statistics unfortunately tell us that 1 in 4 girls, and 1 in 6 boys will be abused before their 18th birthday.
