“The kids loved her (RCMP officer). She was very helpful and friendly and explained things clearly.” In fact, for one of the children the parent explained that the child felt better after talking with the RCMP: “she felt confident and it helped her get over the guilt [of telling] ... she felt better because she felt she had done the right thing.”
