Description
Why prevent sexual violence against young children? Young children are particularly vulnerable to sexual violence because they are dependent on adults to meet their needs, don’t yet know the difference between right and wrong, learn to trust and obey adults, don’t recognize risky situations and can’t always put into words what they are experiencing. We can prevent sexual violence against young children by teaching them simple, concrete concepts that are tailored to their stage of development.
