Know the signs of abuse and talk to your children about them Some signs of abuse are too obvious to hide. Unexplained bruises and injuries may indicate abuse at home, and children who are close to a victim may notice these injuries more quickly than an adult, because they spend more time together. Children also share secrets with each other, and if a child is being abused, he/she may be more comfortable confiding in a close friend than an adult. It is important to talk to children about the signs of abuse, and encourage them to talk to you. To watch a video on this topic go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch? v=jnonlsij8ws. SABÍA USTED? Conozca los signos de abuso y hable con sus hijos sobre ellos Algunas señales de abuso son demasiado obvias para ocultarse, especialmente si un niño está tratando de encubrir evidencia. Los moretones y lesiones inexplicables pueden indicar abuso en el hogar, y los niños que están cerca de la víctima pueden notar estas lesiones más rápidamente que un adulto, porque pasan más tiempo juntos. Los niños también comparten secretos entre sí, y si se está abusando de un niño, él/ella puede sentirse más cómodo/a confiando en un amigo cercano que en un adulto. Es importante hablar con los niños sobre las señales de abuso y alentarlos a hablar con usted. Para ver un video acerca de esta tema visite https:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnonlsij8ws. May the seven years which separate us from the centenary of the apparitions hasten the fulfilment of the prophesy of the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, to the glory of the Most Holy Trinity. 6 Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, 13 May 2010.
