Raising awareness about child sexual abuse

  • Summary

  • In this episode, hosts Dr. Meghna and Devishobha talk about why child sexual abuse is more common than we would like to believe, and the top misconceptions parents have about making their children aware of the abuse and preparing them to deal with it in an appropriate manner. Devishobha and Meghna share real-life incidents where simple, regular communication could have prevented abuse and trauma for the child. They go on to discuss why teaching them about ‘safe and unsafe touch's better than ‘good touch bad touch’ to educate kids about sexual abuse, what questions to ask before you send your child for a summer camp or even school, why using euphemisms for body parts is detrimental to children, and finally some curated strategies to prepare your child to be alert and aware to prevent incidents of child sexual abuse, and also deal with them appropriately, should an unfortunate experience befall them.This week’s mnemonic: KERNELS.If you wish to learn more, check out:Preparing Kids for EmergenciesChild Sexual Abuse -KidskinthaChild HelplineChild sexual abuse and protection laws in IndiaTune in to Big Talk About Tiny Humans every Wednesday for new episodes!Have a question or topic you’d like to see covered on the show?
