Ask repair, service or delivery persons for identification or have them wait outside while you call to verify their employment. Learn to defend yourself. Teach children about the potential for sexual assault and what to do if they are ever approached inappropriately. Children should be told that they are never responsible for sexual assault and to tell a trusted adult if an assault should ever occur. Children's bodies belong to them and nobody has the right to touch them or hurt them.
Rape is sex.
Rape is not sex. It is a crime motivated by a need to control, humiliate and harm. Rapists use sexual violence as a weapon to hurt and dominate others. Women ask to be raped. The way people look, act or dress does not invite sexual assault.
