Content warning: Sexual abuse

We need to talk about this. We need to learn how to protect our children from sexual predictors.
I reached out to author Jayneen Sanders to learn more about what we can do to protect our kids. Here is what we discussed:

Questions you should ask your daycare about how they teach kids body safety (all daycare should!)
We revisit parts of our last conversation about teaching our own kid’s body safety
We discuss body safety programs in schools
We chat about signs a child is being sexually abused at home
How to create a safe space for your child to come to you if they have been sexually abused and how you can support them
