This is why it’s vital to raise the awareness of parents of school-age children about the importance of what they should be doing to safeguard their kids from predators, says Uyen. |

|
As part of his campaign to combat child abuse, Uyen composed a video titled Cho con tuoi tho specifically aimed at raising parents’ awareness of protecting their children from sexual exploitation. |
 |
|
An estimated 100 children and 26 artists participated in the production of the video, which will screen at the upcoming Children Fashion Week set for June 16-18 in Hanoi. |

What protects a child best is a sense of self-worth, says Uyen, and the ability to know when he or she is being treated disrespectfully and courage to stand up and defend themselves. |
