ABC House - A Child Abuse Intervention Center serving Benton and Linn Counties
ABC House Myth Busters!
By Esther Friedman, ABC House Interviewer
MYTH: It’s polite to make children give hugs, even if they don’t want to.
M
any child abusers gain access and evade
detection through manipulation of both the child and
the parents. Abusers “groom” children, developing
trust and confusing the child about what is
appropriate over time. Therefore, we all need to
take steps to make children less vulnerable to this
manipulation. We can do this in several ways, but
the main way is by letting children have ownership of
their bodies and their boundaries.
There are lots of ways to keep our children safe and
aware of what is “ok.” Allowing a child to say “no” to
touch that is not medically necessary, not forcing a
child to hug on demand, and asking if you can hug
or touch—these all help children learn that they have
ownership of their bodies. Teach children to judge
their safety by their comfort level, allowing them to
trust and act on their feelings of when, where, and
how they want to be touched. Most importantly,
allow them the right to refuse. We don’t expect
adults to allow acquaintances to hug or kiss or pat
them–give children the same control. This
empowers them to speak up and to listen to their
instincts about what is safe.
Take notice of who does not listen when the child
wants to stop wrestling, tickling, and other forms of
physical contact, and take immediate steps to set
limits with that person. If someone repeatedly forces
contact, do not allow them to be around the child.
You will be showing your child that she has rights
and support. If someone is intrusive, allow your child
a voice. Teach the child that politeness is not as
important as her own safety – let her develop the
“NO” that so many adults struggle to achieve.
Also, model this for your child. Statements like,
“Joey doesn’t want to
be hugged, but you can
ask for a handshake” or
“Please ask before you
tickle” can offer your
child protection and
ideas on how to refuse
unwanted contact.

elcome to Spring! Our March newsletter is a great opportunity to share with you—our
friends—ABC House’s accomplishments over the past calendar year and to thank you for your
ongoing support. In the following pages you will read excerpts from our 2014 annual report,
including financial information, service statistics and trends observed over the past three years.
Of note, all of our service programs experienced increases in the number of people served
compared to 2013. While it may feel frightening when our numbers rise, particularly in our
child abuse assessment program, we take comfort in the fact that we were able to provide support to all of
these children and their families. Every child referred to us is one more child on the path toward healing.
We consider ABC House supporters to be investors in our organization and so we want you to feel confident
that your donation is being used effectively and efficiently. If you would like more information on our services,
please feel free to get in touch to learn more. As always, thank you very much for your generosity and
commitment to keeping children in our community safe.
2014 At A Glance
I
n 2014, all ABC House programs served more people than in
the previous year. The number of Assessment Services
rebounded after an uncharacteristic decrease in clients in 2013.
Notably, both Karly’s Law consults and Drug Endangered
Children (DEC) consults increased, while on-site interviews and
medical exams decreased.
Assessment Services 2012 - 2014
Community Education services saw an overall increase,
particularly in student presentations and Girls Circle attendees.
The number of adults trained decreased slightly.
Counseling saw increases in the number of child clients, adult
clients and number of counseling hours.
Community Education 2012 - 2014
Counseling 2012 - 2014
I
n 2014, ABC House was required to fundraise 86% of our budget. Only 12% of our expenses are funded through service
fees, primarily due to major shortcomings in insurance reimbursement. As a result, we made greater investments in marketing
and fundraising this year to address the funding gap. 72% of our expenses were related to direct services.

Dear Dr. Carissa: How Can Substance Abuse Affect Parenting?
T
here are 8.3 million children in
the United States living in a home
where at least one parent has a
substance use disorder. That
equates to about 3 children in
every regular-sized classroom.
A substance use disorder does not
mean that a parent loves the drug
more than their child. Substance
use can be thought of as a chronic,
relapsing brain disease. The
chemicals in the brain become
disturbed and, without treatment, a
parent may lack the ability to make
good judgments and decisions,
have difficulties with their behavior
control and have problems with
learning and memory. The
alterations in the brain due to this
chemical imbalance allow a person
to continue making poor decisions
despite the negative
consequences.
Between 60-80% of all child abuse
and neglect cases involve at least
one custodial parent or guardian
with a substance use disorder.
Substance use disorders are the
second highest cause of a parent
losing their parental rights (neglect
is the leading cause ).
Substance use affects children in
many ways. Many drugs and
alcohol affect the developing fetus,
possibly causing birth defects,
prematurity and developmental and
cognitive delays. Children in
homes where there is substance
use are at risk for neglect,
accidental and non-accidental
injuries, emotional problems, and
developing their own substance
use conditions.
judgmental discussion about their
problems with drugs or alcohol. In
our community we are grateful to
the service agencies that provide
assistance to families struggling
with substance use disorders.
For more information on how to get
help, contact your local health
department for a list of programs in
the area.

Dr. Carissa is a staff
pediatrician at ABC House
What can be done to help these
parents and children?
There are many programs available
to parents, but first the substance
use problem needs to be identified.
Identification can be done through
standardized, routine screening
(prenatally, during social service
assessments and by the parent
and child’s medical providers) and
engaging the parent in a non-
Building Self-Reliance in Children
C
hildren can begin in early childhood to develop the
confidence they need to help them handle whatever life
throws at them. Self-reliance adds a sense of
calm to life — a sense of being that soothes
worries about attempting new things. Children
and teens then become the self-responsible,
self-confident, self-motivated, self-accepting
and, ultimately, self-reliant “experts” on their
own lives.
What is self-reliance?
Self-reliance is an inner knowing that tells us
we can handle life no matter what challenges
arise. It is thinking for ourselves and doing
things for ourselves. It doesn’t mean that we
want to run our lives alone, only that we know
we can if we must. When you and your
children are self-reliant, you are decisive and you know
you can depend on your own internal resources, even
when life gets tough.
By Greg Warburton, ABC House Counselor
Fostering self-reliance
As long as you yell, tell, remind, nag, give advice, and/or
make speeches, your children do not need to think, talk,
listen, remember, or decide for themselves. I’m
not blaming parents for their children’s
misbehavior, but it’s important to acknowledge
that this kind of parenting puts children on the
pathway to self-doubt and dependence. If they
do not learn to think and make decisions as they
are learning and growing, they pay a huge price
later in life by becoming dependent young adults
who are unable to stand on their own two feet
and run their lives successfully. They learn to
look to others to handle life for them, and blame
the world and other people in their lives when
things don’t work out. When self-reliance is not
taught, children can experience a fear so great
that they won’t even start anything new. In order
to foster self-reliance in your child, practice letting them
think, talk, listen, and remember before you begin telling,
reminding, and directing them yourself.
