Am Glad I told Mum

"Am glad I told mum."is a book my mother bought for us at home when we were young. That book title and its content are still stuck in my head up to now and would buy the same book for my children in case I come a cross it. This was a book that talked about an uncle who would every evening go for a walk with his niece but would sexually harass her inform of bad touches and would tell the niece never to talk to the mother about it. One day the niece opened up to the mother and the mother confronted the uncle and even made sure the uncle leaves home,this the title am glad I told mum.This is one way our mother used to communicate to us about sexual harassment without her even saying a word to us directly.   I still appreciate the fact that she bought that book for us at a tender age and without saying a word the book spoke volumes to us. My advice to us parents is ,let us find the best ways to protect our children from being victims of sexual harassment and anything related to it. If you cant sit them down and talk to them,you can buy a book ,a novel or even a movie that you know will pass on that very message you want your child to know as they grow up. We need to protect our children from any kind of harassment, let us make our children our best friends so that they can confide in us and say am glad I told my parents about this and they protected me from something bad I did not know about by giving me the right advice
