The best way to prevent sexually transmitted diseases and unwanted pregnancies is through education. Dr Mary McLeod Bethune  The relationship between parent and child will determine the kind of communication that will happen. Most parents didn't create an atmosphere that will enhance the teaching of SEX in the house. No matter how much time passes, the bond between a parent and child remains unbreakable. Unknown  World Health Organization (WHO) has stated that sexuality is  an integral part of the personality of everyone: man,woman and child. This is to tell us that, we are fashioned to have sex but this must not be our focus. That is why parent must take it as their duty to educate their child about it because if they refuse to do that, their children will get the knowledge required from a wrong source which may lead to CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE. Most parents  find it difficult to teach their children because they were not taught also and they think is a taboo to t...

photo credit: Istock A particular boy grown up seeing himself the way his mother calls him. Whenever you correct this boy, this boy will tell you that he is disobedient. I was like, how? I was observing the boy to know what the problem is. One day, I was correcting the child in the presence of his mother. The next thing the mother would say is that, "he can't listen to you, he is a disobedient child" Immediately, I left the scene. I couldn't wait to hear the rest. Now, I understand where the child gets to know that he is disobedient. Little did the mother knows that those negative words she declared over her son has recreated her son. Experience has proven to me that parents tend to lay more emphasis on the weaknesses of their child than the strength of the child. Do you know that words are like image? When you speak it, you create something and you begin to picture it in your mind. Then, it becomes your reality. Instead of declaring negative words on your child, why ...

CONSEQUENCES OF CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE I have discussed what causes child sexual abuse but today I will be talking about the consequences, that is how to know if a child abused. Most times, the child will start to scratch her vagina and urinating frequently almost bed wetting. She will start reacting to some things like not eating frequently.

WHAT CAUSES CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE? There are many things that leads to child sexual abuse which will be listed here; Indecent dressings Broken home Peer pressure Maltreating the children Rejection and many more. If you refuse to show your child love and the only thing you can give her is to curse her daily,she will surely be advised by friends to have sex at an early age to be loved from an opposite. They believe sex is a means of showing love. Show love to your children. Let them feel you. Indecent dressing is another thing, parent just dress anyhow  for their kids. There are some cloths you're not meant to put on your child because men are moved by what they see,they don't want to know if she is a child or not. Be careful of the kind of cloth you wear for them. That doesn't mean you should dress anyhow for them,be modest and neat. Broken home is another issue. The child keeps looking for security and a way to feed herself and the only source of feeding is from a...

HOW A CHILD CAN BE SEXUALLY ABUSED PART 4? I have talked about rape,child marriage and today I'll talk about PROSTITUTION. Due to parent's inability to sponsor the child or raise the child effectively, the parent will sell the child into prostitution to make income. Most times, the child follows the order of his/her parent,when the father brings baby mama in and the mother brings in another man into the house, what do you expect the child to do? In one way or the other,the child's eyes has been abused and at a very young age,she will engage herself into prostitution because she sees nothing wrong in it. Prostitution is a means of abused for our younger ones and it needs to stop. Enough of slavery and child trafficking, help a child today .

HOW A CHILD CAN BE ABUSED (PART 3)? I wonder who came up with traditions and customs of the Hausa people especially the uneducated ones. How on earth will a parent look at their 8 years daughter and the only thing they could think of is to give her to a cleric in marriage. How on earth will you do so? Is it not painful? The only good you see coming out of your child's Jerusalem is to give her to a man who has three wives already and your innocent child to be the fourth person. That is a bad idea if you do not know. Repent. CHILD MARRIAGE is another way in which a child can be abused sexually. There is no way the child will be shown love by the husband that sex won't look like punishment to her. The girl who is not happy with such a decision will try to run away to secure her life but when caught is another issue. Why must you tamper with the life of this young girl? Allow her to explore. The cleric will now by force have sex with the young lady, it's an abuse be...
