This document provides tips for single fathers on protecting their parental rights. It advises never agreeing to give the child's mother sole custody and explains why. Sole custody gives the mother control and means the father would only have "reasonable parenting time", which is often poorly defined and results in little contact with the child. The document urges fathers to insist on joint legal and physical custody instead and have specific parenting time spelled out in court orders, rather than leaving it vague. It warns that agreeing to the mother having sole custody could severely limit the father's relationship with his child and make it very difficult for him to gain more custody rights in the future.

Reports of child abuse are made every 10 seconds, and in 2009 there were over 3 million reports involving around 6 million children.

Poverty is a significant risk factor, with children in families below $15,000 annual income 25 times more likely to experience neglect or abuse. Child abuse costs over $100 billion annually and can have generational impacts if behavioral patterns are passed down through families.

This document is a research paper on child prostitution in America. It discusses how an estimated 300,000 children in the US are at risk of exploitation through commercial sex. Root causes include lack of secure home environments, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. Pimps recruit children by promising love and money, then control them through isolation and deprivation. Johns create the demand. While laws aim to help victims, authorities often unjustly prosecute children as criminals. The paper argues for amending laws to protect victims, increasing social services and awareness to curb runaways, and punishing pimps and johns rather than children exploited in the trade.

33. Testimonials… I think you guy's are once again in the forefront on the technology we as parents need, and aiding law enforcement, parents, volunteers, and the media with the tools necessary to locate children faster once missing. This is the most critical factor in a successful recovery. It is my opinion that this system will play a huge role in cutting down on lost time while locating a missing child. The last thing we can afford in a crisis like this, as parents or as the missing child, is time and false or inaccurate information. Worse yet, not being able to give the police every tool they need to recover our missing children faster. We allow the success rate of the abductor or rapist a better chance of getting away rather than getting caught. Having the vital information and contacts, as well as the other material contained herein, will not only aide in the initial focused recovery of a missing child, but will save manpower and resources for police departments and investigators, as well as volunteers.I wish you the best in this endeavor and see the potential in it's ultimate success in recovering our missing children. As always anything we can do to help. Thank you for your vision in this fight to protect children, and your experience you both bring to the table. Joey TillmanFounder The Child Protection Community

43. http://www.amberchildsafety.com The Amber Child Safety Network is an offshoot of Amber Child Safety. This network is made up of a group of people, dedicated to raising the public awareness to the alarming fact that 2100 children are reported missing every day in the U.S. This network is growing across the country, and will be focused on helping the families of missing and abducted children find the help and resources they need. This dedicated group will be working with like minded groups to lobby for changes in state laws that will benefit the victims and punish the predator. The Amber Child Safety Network will serve as a LOUD and UNITED voice for the victims of abduction and sexual abuse. Once this network is in place across the country, we will bring national attention to local cases of abduction and/or sexual abuse of children. It is our hope that the added attention will result in an acceptable sentencing of the offender. To join the network please visit your state chapter on myspace and facebook.
