Holy Diddling

The Archdiocese of New York has issued a coloring book warning kids about the dangers of sexual abuse by adults. A Betty & Veronica-esque angel floats about black and white line drawings and warns kids not to keep secrets from their parents, not to meet Internet chat buddies in public, and to only allow a doctor or parent to see their "bathing suit" areas. All sound advice, but it's curious that the book doesn't warn kids about potential sexual abuse from their family members, as is most often the case. And, of course, it never warns them that they may be sexually abused by the guy in the black outfit who gave them the coloring book. Load your printer with some fresh ink and bust out the Crayolas, because you can download the book for free here.
