Consent & Body Safety and How to Teach it to Children

Whether you are a parent, caregiver, or ally of a toddler up to a teen, the important subject of consent and body safety should be a frequent topic in your home and/or lives.

As data indicates, 25 percent of women and one out of thirteen men are sexually abused by the age of 18, and it’s also well documented that the long-term effects of sexual violence can be devasting from depression, suicidal ideation, alcohol and/or drug abuse, and more.

About the Training

Having brave and honest conversations with your children or those you care about is a critical step in preventing sexual violence.

But, how? How do we have that conversation at age-appropriate levels? Are you afraid of saying the wrong thing? Do you simply not know where to start?

To empower and teach children about personal body safety, feelings, safe and unsafe touch, private parts, secrets and surprises, consent, and respectful relationships is a specialty for Jayneen Sanders, a renowned author, publisher, elementary school teacher, mother of three and an active advocate.

Join Brave Step and Jayneen Sanders Sept. 6 at 7 p.m. ET to gain knowledge and skills that will empower you on the topic of consent and body safety rules.

As shared in one of her many educational books, “Teaching young children about body boundaries, both theirs and others, is crucial to a child’s growing sense of self, their confidence and how they should expect to be treated by others. A child growing up knowing they have a right to their own personal space, gives that child ownership and choices as to what happens to them and to their body. It is equally important a child understands, from a very young age, they need to respect another person’s body boundary and ask for their consent when entering their personal space.”

Invest an hour to increase the safety and development of the children and teens you love. Register now https://secure.lglforms.com/form_engine/s/1_VQvUSaDr18XpdUjTwHPA.
