To summarize my last several posts, I would urge any parent
that discovers an inappropriate relationship to report it to the agency having
jurisdiction. Remember the first and foremost priority for everyone involved is
the safety of the child. The second priority is preserving any evidence to
assist in the end goal of putting the suspect ...

I have given many talks on the benefits of monitoring your children and have discussed, often time at length, the reasons for monitoring your kids. Usually the parent will start out with something along the lines of….well my kids are not like that, or… we have a very open relationship and my child would always come to me with something of that ...

It has been my experience that a teenager involved in an inappropriate relationship will often only reveal only a small part of the relationship, and again this depends on the extent of the relationship. Sometimes you have a teenage child that has had hundreds of hours of communication with an adult. The child feels that nobody but the suspect ...

If the communication between your child and the suspect is strictly via the Internet or through a cell phone then it is easier to control then if the subject is a teacher or otherwise close to the victim on a daily basis.
Depending how the relationship was discovered usually will give you an idea of how to control or stop the relationship. Many ...

As I wrote in my last blog, my 16-year-old daughter took her behind-the-wheel test at the California Department of Motor Vehicles last week, and passed. She is now licensed to drive.

School is back in. Now is the perfect time to make the
dedication to actively monitor our children.
My 14-year-old son just
started high school today and only has classes with a couple of his friends, so
he is now forced to start making new friends. I have no idea whom he will
be-friend or what kind of home life ...

It is common thinking, even at the national level, to
advocate only allowing computers in a common area of the home such as the
kitchen or living room. Often times you will hear the bedroom as the worst
place to put a child’s computer. ...

My almost 16-year-old daughter started her first job this
week. Although she is a mere two years away from adulthood, she is still my
responsibility to protect and to keep safe. I know nothing about these kids and
adults she will be introduced to and working with on a day to day basis.
I am ...

One of the most important points I try to make when talking about teen/child safety is the fact that you are better off to monitor than to restrict the use of a kid’s computer or cell phone.
Over the years, I have had many parents come to me long after having identified an issue with their teen; be it inappropriate communication or behavior ...

As I stated before, I am the parent of four kids: two teenagers, and two eight-year-olds. I will talk about my teenage, fifteen almost sixteen-year-old daughter first. I will discuss the others in a later post.
Both of my teenagers are different in how they interact with their friends and they have very different interests. I know anyone with a ...
