The American Medical Association has produced an inexpensive 35-page coloring book for children that tells them about loving sex and abusive sex, and the difference between the two. Written by a psychiatrist (how would he know the difference????), SEX TALK FOR A SAFE CHILD provides children with ways to get out of difficult situations. If an adult tries to force sexual attention on a child, the book advises: "Yell 'NO' that's wrong, stop.' Always tell your mother or father (what if it IS your mother or father?) so that it does not happen again" Information on how to purchase the book can be obtained by writing to: Order Department OP-234 American Medical Association P.O. Box 10946 Chicago, Ill. 60610 Regards, Ken Arndt

Re: Child Abuse - action_______________________________________________________ Ken Arndt recently sent an article to net.kids and net.motss referring to a child abuse pamphlet one can get. It's thoughtful of him to post the reference, but one wonders about his motives for sending it to net.motss. Most subscribers to net.motss would probably agree that it's yet ano- ther attempt on Ken's part to paint homosexuals and child molesters with the same brush. So, net.kids subscribers, don't be misled by the Ken's implications. The fact is that most child molesters are heterosexual, probably because most people are heterosexual. The best way to protect your child is to look at the situation realistically.
