Strangers are Not the Danger
b'
Steph and Beth both grew up hearing about \\u201cStranger Danger.\\u201d The idea of a stranger is amorphous and unclear, and it only alerts children to potential external danger. But most child abuse happens at the hands of someone the child knows\\u2014that was the case for Steph. She was abused by someone her family trusted. This is an honest conversation about why potential danger from within a family, a church, or a social circle can be hard for adults to process, and even harder to guard children against. Maybe instead of teaching \\u201cStranger Danger,\\u201d we do better to teach kids to trust their gut and talk to a grownup.
