Guest guest Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 In my upcoming (long awaited) online class, Boundaries for Chiropractors, I interview a rape victim who’s attacker was an adult family friend. She recommends a book “The Gift of Fear” by Gavin de Becker, who is an expert in teaching skills in recognizing violent crime before it happens; to you. Get the book for your kids (girls and boys). Discuss the skills it teaches. I’ve attached a couple of pages for your perusal including how to say “No” when it seems rude to do so. Enormous quote of the day, “At core, men are afraid women will laugh at them, while at core women are afraid men will kill them.” http://www.amazon.com/Gift-Fear-Gavin-Becker/dp/0440226198 In this empowering book, Gavin de Becker, the man Oprah Winfrey calls the nation's leading expert on violent behavior, shows you how to spot even subtle signs of danger—before it's too late. Shattering the myth that most violent acts are unpredictable, de Becker, whose clients include top Hollywood stars and government agencies, offers specific ways to protect yourself and those you love, including...how to act when approached by a stranger...when you should fear someone close to you...what to do if you are being stalked...how to uncover the source of anonymous threats or phone calls...the biggest mistake you can make with a threatening person...and more. Learn to spot the danger signals others miss. It might just save your life. -- E. Abrahamson, D.C.
