Thank you Linda. My sons are ages 4, 3 and 3. Can you, or anyone else recommend some reading for me on how to explain at this age? I want to handle this the right way.
Keep it simple, private parts are part covered by a bathing suit.
I do have some reference material somewhere....I'll dig it out as soon as I can.
Also I think everyone should teach children the proper names for their body parts. God forbid if anything ever happens your children can describe exactly what happened.
Most of all...keep it simple...don't be too scary....be empowering! Tell them who they can tell ASAP if anything every happens and have them practice YELLING "NO" and run away from anyone trying to touch them.
