What A Nice Guy: No Strangers! No Secrets!

Read the children’s story that goes beyond “Good Touch, Bad Touch.” “What A Nice Guy” is a riveting story that shares the events of a young girl who moves from a gated community in Harlem, N.Y to the suburb of Teaneck, N.J. As mother and daughter adapts to their new community, they encounter Mr. Nice Guy. “What A Nice Guy” was written to raise awareness on child sexual assaults and abductions. As a survivor, my goal is to impact the world with positive change. To do so, I need the support of an individual who would raise awareness but also have the ability implement laws to protect victims. To my surprise, former President Barack Obama replied with a letter of encouragement. A message from the 44th President of the United States “Sexual assault is an affront to our basic decency and humanity, and I admire your courage in sharing your story. This issue affects all of us and is about the safety of those we love most: our wives, our daughters, and our sons.” ~ President Barack Obama The book includes a lesson plan for both child and parent. Parents, it ‘s time to have “the talk” with your children. Child predators reside in every community and some families. It’s our responsible to raise awareness and protect the innocence of children.

Mistake #82: Asking permission. Children, not adults, ask for approval. Be direct, be confident.
