You know that the parenting landscape has changed over the last 20 years and that every single parent I believe, "their children" to grow up to be happy, healthy, strong, kind, and resilient. Well one of the areas that you are going to need to change, compared to parent education 20 and 30 years ago, is your understanding of teaching young children about torso safety. Body security is how we explore what mine is and what other people have permission to touch.
Why is this now something you need to focus on a lot more than previous generations? It is because of the saturation of online porn that's accessible to children easily. And at different times something truly quite sad has come across my, in through my canals whether it's emails or otherwise, of children who have verified things. Sometimes inadvertently, sometimes without any malice from another sibling, or a child down the road, and it's induced great distress.
So the work requires our children be informed about what, about the human body. We need to know about nakedness, we need to know about what's appropriate for young children to explore, and we know that there are natural, sexual exploration of young children that is considered entirely natural and healthy, and like let me show you mine, and you can show me your kind of thing. That is actually quite normal and healthy. But there are new statistics out that are showing that young children are doing much more than that, and they are actually engaged in copying images that they've seen online. Now I don't want to alarm you to make you think the world's a ghastly, ghastly home, but I always believe in prevention is much better than trying to panacea something later on down the track So even when young children are under three and four, I want you to talk to them at soak occasion about their body and about their private parts, and which places are theirs that nobody should be able to touch, even grownups without their permission, because it's an incredibly important content to get across that that is something that they have the right to say yes or no.
We need to likewise tell them that touching other people's private parts including other children's, is actually not okay. So once again there are some fantastic depict journals that are gonna are contributing to do that because earnestly it's a squirmy theme and we don't want to mess it up do we? We don't want to frighten our children, and we don't want to let them seem that their innocence is being shattered. We need to take prevention and it is also necessary to do it now, and we need to start early, and there are some fantastic depict journals that you can find on my other concerns page, that will help you with the right expression. And remember start early, keep encouraging during their primary school years, and you may need to revisit it a bit in a slightly different context when they're adolescents.
Our children need to know their body is theirs, not to be touched or contravened by any other person, without their permission and that they never ever should keep secrets about things that make them feel really uncomfortable. And on the same occasion, let them know that naked forms are healthy and normal within our private realms of our dwelling and our household, and I think we can make a huge wallop into reducing the statistics that are showing the shattering of young children, sexually playing with other kids in inappropriate ways because of things they've seen, that I wish they never had to see.
