Protecting the Gift: Keeping Children and Teenagers Safe (And Parents Sane)
Bookfanatic avatar reviewed on


I can't recommend this book highly enough. All parents should read it. Becker's advice for protecting children and teenagers from predators is practical. Make careful slow choices of the people you include in your child's life and fast choices about who you exclude. If you want safety skills for children outside the home, warning signs of sexual abuse, how to screen baby-sitters and choose schools, and strategies for keeping teenagers safe from violence, this book is for you.
