Satan's world is becoming more and more wicked, and there ware some people who may want to harm our children, even sexually abuse them.  Some parents find it difficult to talk about this subject.  But parents need to warn their children about such people  and teach them how to avoid them.  Parents, you must protect your children." - 1 PETER 5:8.
