5 out of 5 stars Non-Offending Parent Supporting Book   October 28, 2008
Mary Herrington (CT)
Erin gets the topic of privacy right off the bat. We have to teach our children to be aware of their personal space and rights to privacy from the beginning. It is important to teach them the proper names of body parts, but knowing what is okay touching and what is allowed within their own personal space is of utmost importance. Great job!

5 out of 5 stars Every parent and grandparent should read this book!   August 7, 2007

I have not only read this book but I have interviewed her on my radio show twice. This is a must read by all parents and family if you want to begin to know how to protect your children from child sexual predators.

97% of all child predators are in the family inner circle. Unless we begin to understand the minds of these perpetrators we leave our children vulnerable. Go to her website for more helpful information: www.relativedanger.com

Dolgan gets it right - create a calm, sometimes amusing situation comfortable for conversation and questions. Great pictures and poems to be read aloud instead of didactic or boring lessons. Every parent should read this with their children!
