In this month’s episode, Janet speaks about the relationship children have with their bodies, and other people’s bodies, to help parents and caregivers better understand what’s normal behavior and what’s not. Janet talks about how infants and children are infinitely curious about their bodies, how children explore their bodies and compare them to parents, siblings and peers. She also points out how important it is to not shame children for their natural curiosity but to ensure their behaviour is spontaneous and doesn’t involve any threat or coersion. She also highlights what is considered normal sexual behaviour in children and what situations might be cause for concern, as well as what to do if you see any signs of abuse.  You can read more about this topic here or on our website.
