Introducing the Body Safety Chat to your Child

Child Sexual Abuse Prevention by Zina

Send us a Text Message.

This episode is just what the title states...and more. While communication with your child is still key in keeping them safe, information on teaching body boundaries is provided for you on what to do and what not to do (Santa Clause/family example).
A segment on how to teach your child the name of their anatomy is discussed. Children need to know this in the event they need to tell you something involving their body, or someone else's body. Safe and unsafe touches are discussed.
Examples are provided throughout this episode on what to say to your child if anyone makes them feel uncomfortable, regardless of who it is and any age. Additional examples will follow in future episodes.
This episode is geared towards educating young children on child sexual abuse prevention.
Thanks for stopping by!
