Good news! Our project,\u00a0I talk to my child about abuse<\/a>, has been accepted to be one of the 25 causes that you can run for at 2018 Sibiu International Marathon!
\nRecent statistics show that, in Romania, 6 children are sexually abused every day.\u00a01 in 6\u00a0boys and\u00a01 in 4\u00a0girls will face some form of sexual abuse before the age of\u00a018. Beyond stats, this is also confirmed by the from stories entrusted to us, between tears of frustration and helplessness, in A.L.E.G.\u2019s \u201cblue room\u201d, where our psychological counselling sessions take place. Many parents showed their need to learn how to protect their children from sexual abuse and how to talk to them about these taboo topics.<\/p>\n

And since it is a subject surrounded by silence, both at home, and at school, there is a series of wide-spread, very dangerous myths.
\nMyth 1.\u00a0<\/em>\u201cIt cannot happen to my child<\/em>\u201d\"2\"<\/a>
\nDanger lies much closer than we think. Figures show that only 10% of sexual abusers are unknown, 23% are other children, while 67% of sexual abuses are perpetrated by somebody who has access to the child and who is wee-known to the little one. Abuse takes place in seemingly safe places. In most cases of abuse, children are under 5 years old.
\nMyth 2.\u00a0<\/em>\u201cIt<\/em>\u2019s better to stay away from this topic.<\/em>\u201d
\nAs it is a sensitive subject, parents avoid talking to their children about protecting their body. Out of shame, they fail to give them early sexual education. Others often say \u201cit is too early\u201d. It is important that we think about the consequences, the costs that our children will pay because of the lack of parental education.
\nThrough our project, 180 parents and teachers in the municipality of Sibiu, as well as in towns and villages in the county of Sibiu will benefit from parental education sessions, held by experienced psychologists, who will help them acquire the necessary abilities to prevent sexual abuse on children and young people.It is best that parents and teacher make sure children get the right information, so that they do not become victims of sexual abuse. According to and old saying, \u201eit<\/em>\u00a0takes a village to raise a child\u201d\u00a0<\/em>– a community of responsible, attentive, and sympathetic people!
