A 16-year old boy was forced to perform illegal s*x acts by this husband/wife while he was staying over at their Riverview home. The sheriff's office said the minor and the couple already knew each other before the incident happened in April.
Children MUST know how to recognize red flags when they are being groomed by friends of the family, neighbors or other trusted authority figures. Sadly, statistics show that children are most often abused by someone they know.
Stop The Movement educates and supports kids in knowing their worth and self-esteem, listening to their gut, recognizing a potential red flag situation BEFORE the abuse happens and how crucial it is to talk with a trusted adult. And most importantly, eliminating shame if an adult tries to groom them or has already hurt them - it is NEVER their fault!
