IS THIS NORMAL?
Understanding your child's sexual behaviour
" This is a clearly written resource for parents that draws on principles identified in the latest research about sexuality, development, and the safety and wellbeing of young people. It provides practical suggestions that support parents and carers to feel more comfortable about the area of sexuality and young people.”
Dr Daryl Higgins, Australian Institute of Family Studies
Children's sexual behaviours can be embarrassing and confusing and sometimes cause concern. Knowing what's considered normal can ease some of the worry of parenting. Knowing more about sexual behaviours is part of helping protect children from harm.
Is this normal? Understanding your child’s sexual behaviour provides parents and carers with:
• an explanation of the Traffic Lights framework for understanding and responding to children's sexual behaviours
• stories about everyday situations where action might be needed
• tools to support communication with children about sexuality and relationships
• ideas for what to do when a child's behaviour is not appropriate for their age
• suggestions for how to get support
