Recently a day care worker in Tallahassee, Florida, took action to protect children in her care when she noticed a man in a parked van taking photos of the children outside. In response, she took the children inside and locked the gate. The response from her management and the parents was not supportive of her actions. How do we, as Alert Adults, take the actions necessary to protect children without raising the ire of other adults in the environment?

Sometimes it is important to stop and listen to the story of someone who was groomed and molested in front of a whole crowd of people who thought they were doing something good for him - because they could not see the risk. Being an Alert Adult takes something. We have to focus, practice, and have the courage to take action. Joseph's story of what happened and how it came about is a reminder of why we bother to become a part of this effort - becoming an Alert Adult.

Let's use social media to cultivate and nurture all our adolescents growing up to be responsible adults, particularly those in the LGBTQ+ community.
