One in five girls in the United States is sexually abused each year.  Some do not disclose sexual abuse until they are much older.  These children find themselves in foster care if their parent does not protect them from ongoing harm.  The most common perpetrators are boyfriends, step-parents, and relatives, with 80% of the perpetrators being within the birth family.

Studies have shown that in the aftermath of sexual abuse, 50% of sexually abused girls later become juvenile delinquents, run away, are significantly more aggressive, engage in promiscuous activities when poverty is factored in, engage in drug related activities, can self-mutilate, have uncontrolled outbursts of rage, need to always be in control of situations, and become abusive towards boyfriends, or get into abusive relationships.  Sexually abused children and teens also develop eating disorders, and have guilt, shame, anxiety and depression, and poor self-esteem.

So how can we make our girls fight back and become resilient young teens?  How do we protect our young girls and teach them the right ways of coping?  Here are the top five techniques that have worked very successfully with teen girls, according to Dr. Kalyani Gopal, Licensed Clinical Psychologist (www.thesupportivefosterparent.com):

What would you give up to go to the Super Bowl? With the year's most highly anticipated sporting event just days away, a new CouponCabin.com survey reveals what major life events U.S. adults would miss to attend a Super Bowl game featuring their favorite NFL team. Of those who have a favorite NFL team, the top response was a vacation at 23 percent, followed by:

• An important work responsibility – 21 percent
• Wedding of a close friend or family member – 20 percent
• Funeral of a loved one – 19 percent
• Birth of their child – 15 percent

This survey was conducted online within the United States by Harris Interactive on behalf of Coupon Cabin from January 9th - 11th, 2012 among 2,625 adults ages 18 and older.

Missing major life events for a Super Bowl game demonstrates the NFL football game's widespread popularity among Americans. Nearly four-in-ten (37 percent) U.S. adults said the Super Bowl is the best major sporting event, with only nine percent saying the same of the MLB World Series and 7 percent saying the same of the NCAA March Madness Championship. In addition, 56 percent of U.S. adults said they plan to watch the Super Bowl this year. Men are significantly more likely to watch the Super Bowl this year at 67 percent, compared to 46 percent of women.

Most parents are careful about learning what’s in the stuff their kids eat and drink. They avoid artificial dyes, preservatives, chemicals, and sweeteners. Yet ask just about any of those same folks if they have ever looked at what is in their toothpaste and you’ll likely get blank stares.  Considering the fact that children – and adults -- ingest toothpaste twice a day every day, it’s probably the most frequent thing we put in our mouths other than water or other beverages. And still, most people have never looked at what is in their toothpaste.
 
Dentist and national oral health care expert Harold Katz, (www.therabreath.com), suggests that needs to change. Many ingredients in some commercial toothpastes are of questionable benefit and some are just plain bad for you.  Consumers have become increasingly aware of the hidden toxins in foods, beverages and eating and drinking utensils, he says. They avoid high fat and high sodium foods, sulfates in their personal care products, aerosol sprays, and toxic chemicals in their household cleaners.

“They’re taking no chances, and rightfully so. Remember the rush to replace plastic baby bottles with glass ones after the BPA scare in 2008?” he asked.  However there has been a surprising lack of attention to toothpaste, Katz says. The dentist suggests that all consumers – but especially parents – take the time to read their toothpaste tubes today. Effects of potentially unhealthy toothpaste ingredients are multiplied in the smaller bodies of children.

Here are a few ingredients to stay away from:
