The Joyful Child Foundation

http://www.thejoyfulchild.org/

I heard about this organization on "Penn and Teller's Bullshit." Watching the mother talk about the rape and murder of her daughter made me tear up. BUT she doesn't want parents to terrify their kids. LESS THAN 5% of abductions and sexual assaults are committed by strangers. She wants the parents to do the worrying and not cripple their children with needless fears about the world and people they don't know. If children are harmed, it will be probably be by someone they know or trust. Sad but true.
