Episode Summary: In this heartfelt conversation, Kristi McVee and Jeanie Dean discuss Jeanie's journey from being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse to becoming an advocate for child safeguarding. They explore the challenges of coping with trauma, the impact of addiction, and the importance of supportive relationships. Jeanie shares her experiences working with sex offenders and in child protection, emphasising the need to see the person behind the behaviour. The conversation also touches on parenting through trauma and the struggle to break cycles of abuse, ultimately highlighting the journey of self-discovery and healing. In this conversation, Jeanie and Kristi delve into the complexities of child protection, discussing systemic failures, personal trauma, and the importance of creating safe environments for children. They emphasise the role of organisations and parents in safeguarding children, the need for open communication, and the community's responsibility in ensuring child safety. The discussion highlights the challenges faced by professionals in the field and the necessity for proactive measures to protect vulnerable individuals. Key Takeaways: Jeanie is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and family violence. Coping mechanisms often lead to unhealthy behaviours, such as drug use. Arrest can serve as a turning point for change and self-reflection. Supportive relationships can be life-saving and transformative. Parenting through trauma requires awareness and intentionality to break cycles. Understanding child safeguarding is crucial for protecting vulnerable individuals. Working with sex offenders requires separating the person from their behaviour. Therapy and self-discovery are essential for healing from trauma. Labels like 'victim' can be triggering and limiting for survivors. Personal growth involves accepting oneself without needing a title. Systemic failures in child protection lead to repeated trauma. Personal experiences shape professional choices in child welfare. Creating child safe environments is essential for community organisations. Organisations must understand their legal duties regarding child safety. Parents should actively inquire about child safety policies in organisations. Older children face unique risks that require vigilant supervision. Open communication is crucial for safeguarding children. Community responsibility is vital in creating safe environments for kids. Education and awareness are key for parents in safeguarding their children. Child safety policies must be actively lived and enforced within organisations.

Jade Dass was taking medication to treat her addiction to opioids before she became pregnant. Scientific studies and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say this leads to the best outcomes for both mothers and babies. But after Dass delivered a healthy daughter, the hospital reported her to the Arizona Department of Child Safety, which conducted an investigation and separated her from her newborn.  “I just couldn't believe it, that people would act like this,” Dass says. “Like how they couldn't see—it's, like, you have no humanity if you're gonna take someone's baby.”To understand the scale of this issue, reporter Shoshana Walter, data reporter Melissa Lewis, and a team of Reveal researchers and lawyers filed 100 public records requests, putting together the first-ever tally of how often women are reported to child welfare agencies for taking prescription drugs during pregnancy. This week on Reveal, we follow Dass as she grapples with losing custody of her baby—and makes one last desperate attempt to keep her family together.Walter has turned some of her reporting for Reveal into a book about the addiction treatment industry, Rehab: An American Scandal, which comes out this month. This is an update of an episode that originally aired in July 2023.

Ever had an idea so specific that everyone told you it wouldn't work? Nelson Nigel heard that too, right before scaling his niche startup, Kidmoto, to over 60 cities across the U.S. Nelson is the founder and CEO of Kidmoto, a reservation-based ride service that provides pre-installed child car seats for families traveling to and from airports.  After surviving a life-threatening train accident at age 13 and later working as a NYC cab and Uber driver, Nelson spotted a critical gap in the rideshare market – one that Uber and traditional taxis weren't solving. So, with just $600 and relentless energy, he built a solution parents now rely on nationwide. What Happens When You Build a Business Around One Clear Problem Most ride services leave families on their own when it comes to car seats, creating travel stress and safety risks. Nelson shares how identifying this single, overlooked pain point helped Kidmoto stand out in a crowded market. By going all-in on solving this one issue, he built a business that serves a specific type of customer better than anyone else. How to Grow Without Investors, Funding, or a Tech Background No VC backing. No glamorous startup story. Nelson built everything from the ground up – outsourcing tech, mastering content marketing, and learning to prioritize the right problems at the right time.

This morning, the UK regulator Ofcom released its Children's Safety Codes. These are the regulations that platforms will have to follow to protect young users and abide by the Online Safety Act. Platforms will have three months to carry out a risk assessment and bring the codes into effect. Ofcom can start enforcing the regulations from July. The most significant aspect is the requirement for strong age verification. Anita Rani hears from Baroness Beeban Kidron, founder of Five Rights, an international NGO working with and for children for a rights-respecting digital world, and Ian Russell, Chair of the Molly Rose Foundation. Ian's daughter Molly took her life at the age of 14 after being exposed to harmful content online.A new report says 91% of organisations in the UK's women and girls sector have seen a rise in demand for their services, but only 52% expect to be able to meet it. The report - from Rosa, the UK fund for women and girls - also found that 1.8% of charitable giving goes to women's charities although they represent at least 3.5% of charities. Anita is joined by Rebecca Gill, Executive Director at Rosa UK fund for women and girls and Cecily Mwaniki, Director of Utulivu, who support Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and refugee women, girls, and their families in Reading.According to campaigners, people who have committed murder, manslaughter or stalking offences should be forced to live in restricted areas after being released from prison on licence. Anita is joined by BBC journalist Gemma Dunstan and law-change campaigners Rhianon Bragg and Dianna Parkes. 29-year-old Pippa White shares her daily life as a vicar to millions of viewers on TikTok.

We begin by explaining why child safety is such an important issue before learning why it sits at number one on Kid's Ministry's list of objectives. Then, we unpack the traits that make up the perfect Kid's Ministry volunteer, how we find and enlist them, other policies worth mentioning about child safety at Family Church, and why we hold an annual child safety meeting for the parents in our congregation. We end with helpful advice for improving child safety at your church, and Leslee shares her perspective on what parents look out for when bringing their kids to church for the first time.  Key Points From This Episode: Understanding why safety is number one on the Kid's Ministry's list of priorities.  The characteristics that define the perfect Kid's Ministry volunteer.  Kid's Ministry's protocol for finding and enlisting volunteers.  How to start improving child safety at your church.  Background checks and other non-negotiables for child safety on church grounds.  What parents view as important when taking their kids to church for the first time.  We need to be as vigilant; careful; and as aggressive as we can about creating a safe environment for the kids.Click To Tweet Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Jimmy on X Leslee on X  Church for the Rest of us Conference 2025  Family Church Kids Elementary Family Church Kids Preschool Family Church Network Family Church on Facebook Family Church on Instagram Get podcast updates delivered to your inbox.
