Popularised through his book "Games People Play", Eric Berne's theory of transactional analysis suggests that in our interactions we play the role of Parent, Adult or Child. Parent is our 'Taught' concept of life, adult - our 'Thought' concept of life and child - our 'Felt' concept of life.

Today, Wednesday 13 May 2015, parents across Greater Manchester are being offered the chance to learn first-hand how to spot the warning signs that their children may be in danger of being sexually exploited.
Organised by Project Phoenix, Parents’ Awareness Day will see a host of education and awareness events held right across Greater Manchester. In addition, parents and carers will be able to join a webchat where they can speak online with a mother whose daughter was groomed for sexual exploitation.
Manchester’s Arndale Centre is hosting the central Greater Manchester event, offering the chance to interact with smartphones and tablet computers to learn how to protect children on the web.
The city centre event will kick-off between 10am-4pm and invite parents to learn how to keep their child safe through modern technology and apps, helped by experts from Greater Manchester Police, The Children’s Society and Parents Against Child Sexual Exploitation (Pace).
At 5.30pm, parents will be able to speak anonymously with a mother whose daughter was groomed by an older ‘friend.’ Through an online question and answer session at www.itsnotokay.co.uk, the mother will discuss what happened to her child, the signs that something was wrong and the support she received to help them both recover. Parents can view key moments on Twitter by following @NotOkayGM, searching for the hashtag #itsnotokay or visiting Facebook.com/NotOkayGM.
Another parent (not taking part in the online discussion) Anne, whose daughter Elizabeth was groomed and raped when she was just 14, said:
“My daughter was a really well-behaved girl, we had a fantastic mother-daughter relationship. There was nothing to suggest that she would be in any danger. My message to parents is to never be complacent about what your children are doing online or who they are meeting when they go out. My daughter was not groomed by an Asian gang, it was a combination of young people around her own age and adults that manipulated them. It can happen to anyone.”
Damian Dallimore, Project Phoenix Manager, said:
“Two months ago the government declared child sexual exploitation a national threat, but it’s still a subject that most people know very little about. We’re keen to show parents how to spot the signs that their son or daughter might be in danger of being exploited – whether it’s online or out with their friends.
“The best weapon we have as parents and carers is the ability to recognise that something isn’t right and know what to do about it. We’re very lucky in Greater Manchester in that we have a single, unified approach to tackling child sexual exploitation across local authorities, police, NHS and charities. This awareness day is about using that expertise to help the region’s mums and dads to better understand how to protect their children.”
Greater Manchester Police and Crime Commissioner Tony Lloyd said:
“It’s so important that mums, dads and carers understand what child sexual exploitation so they can recognise the signs and get help if they are worried.
“It’s not always easy to know what our children get up to, or if anything is wrong, but there are tell-tale signs that could indicate your child is being sexually exploited.
“Help and support is out there and I want every parent and carer in Greater Manchester to know where they can get it.”

Parents keep their signs held high for the duration of the school board meeting on April 15, 2015 in Fulton, Missouri. The questions on their signs are similar to the ones asked in the P.E. classes of Fulton Middle School.
