US father Erik Denton was supposed to see his three young children last Sunday, the one day every other week that he was allowed to be with them.
Three-year-old Joanna, her 2-year-old brother, Terry, and 6-month-old sister, Sierra, had been staying with their mother Denton s ex-girlfriend in Los Angeles.
Fearful for their safety, their father had petitioned the court for custody on March 1, alleging their mother, Liliana Carrillo, was delusional and had taken the kids and refused to tell him where they were.
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month, and Focus on the Family is raising awareness through its “Prevention with a Purpose” campaign.
With this month’s campaign, Focus on the Family is honing in on prevention as a key element that can save lives. People in any role in a child’s life play a part in preventing child abuse by actively looking and listening for signs of abuse or neglect.
“Our Prevention with Purpose campaign is about helping everyone to know that their eyes and ears matter in the life of a child,” Sharen Ford, director of foster care and adoption for Focus on the Family, said. “If you see something that is suspicious, please call and report it. If you hear something that concerns you a conversation that young children are having or older children and it sounds suspicious, please pick up the phone and report it.”
