shaan-doesnt-keep-a-secretWhy teach kids about secrets?
  • Child predators often manipulate or “groom” children by instructing them to keep secrets about unsafe/inappropriate behavior. Keeping secrets are central to the grooming process and help protect the predator and also continue their actions.
  • The child predator’s power comes from the secrets that the child is manipulated into keeping. By making children aware of this tactic, they can recognize and resist these grooming techniques.
  • By educating children about the dangers of keeping secrets, they are more likely to recognize warning signs and feel empowered to speak up about any inappropriate or harmful behavior they experience.
