How Good Parents Miss the Signs of Child Sexual Abuse

How do good parents miss child sexual abuse? It is simple.

By not asking the right questions.

One day my son went to a classmate’s home for a Halloween costume party. When I picked him up a few hours later I could tell by the ear to ear grin on his face that he had a great time. As we were about to leave, I was standing at the door with the child’s father and grandmother.

Both adults were giving me a great report about his behavior. Parent relieved. Thank goodness. No issues. No worries.

But as I drove us home I felt uneasy. Something was off.

Then it hit me. I swerved into the next parking lot.

I had been here before. Except I was the child.

When parents ask children whether or not they were good in front of children and adults most children feel pressured to say yes.

I could recall that when I was being abused by a teen relative my mother would innocently ask me a few questions as we left a relative’s home.

“Did you behave?” “Did you listen?” “Were you a good girl?”

1.  What mom didn’t know is that the teen who was living there had threatened me before she had even arrived. Sometimes he’d even be standing behind her balling up his fists or giving me mean looks.

2.  Asking me those questions, especially in front of a person who was using me for sexual experimentation, reinforced in my young mind that I was supposed to do whatever I was told by the person who was watching me while she was gone.
