Digital Smarts - All Secrets Can Be Told

“All Secrets Can Be Told” is a FREE lesson plan, along with a video called “Tom’s Secret,” that is available for parents, schools and other child-serving organizations. It was developed by Child Lures/Teen Lures Prevention, a group that works to prevent all forms of mistreatment, including sexual exploitation. One of the biggest challenges parents and teachers have is getting kids to talk about things that might be happening to them. The goal of this group and their materials is to promote “ongoing conversations with children about healthy social relationships, personal boundaries, mutual respect and kindness towards others - from an early age through college.” Through the distribution of their materials they hope to give kids the courage to ask adults for help with safety issues and to talk about secrets without feeling coerced or threatened to keep them, especially those sexual in nature.
