Summary
This is Lily. She’s happy, just like you. But sometimes, not all children feel safe. Sometimes, bad things happen to kids, like being hurt or feeling scared. This is called abuse. One day, Lily noticed her friend Sam wasn’t smiling like he used to. He had a bruise on his arm and looked sad. When Lily asked if everything was okay, Sam said, "I don’t want to get in trouble." Lily didn’t know what to do. She was worried but didn’t want to upset Sam. She thought hard and decided it was important to help. So, Lily told her teacher, "I’m worried about Sam." The teacher listened and thanked Lily for speaking up. The grown-ups made sure Sam got help, and soon, he felt safe again. When kids like Lily speak up, it can stop bad things from happening. Every child deserves to feel safe, loved, and happy. If you ever see something that doesn’t feel right, tell a grown-up you trust. Even one voice can make a big difference. Speak up, be brave, and help make the world a better place for everyone.
