Creating a positive environment Share
responsibility for the safety of everyone’s children.
If we want to empty our
prisons, to be safe in our homes and our communities, and to build healthy
relationships, families and communities free from sexual, domestic and
interpersonal violence, we have to protect children from experiencing or
witnessing violence, or get to them as soon as possible after that experience
and teach them that there is another way to relate to others.
We
have to teach them that violence is learned and can be
unlearned, that violence is a choice, and you can choose
peace over violence.
