Have you taught your children about trusted and tricky people!?

✨Here’s a few things that a trusted person would never say:

➕This is our little secret, don’t tell anyone what we did today.
➕You have to let me touch you.
➕You have to look at these pictures.
➕Don’t tell your parents
➕Your parents will be mad
➕Someone will be hurt if you share this information

The phrases above are the most common ones I’ve heard in my work with survivors. ❤️

Teaching our children about trusted people helps them be protected not only for themselves but can help them call out situations that may not be good at school or with their peers.

I reccomend having these conversations by school age with your kids.❤️

✨Imagine your 6-year-old child finds a box of tampons in the cupboard.✨

They pull it out, and tampons fall all over the floor. They run over to you and say: "Daddy! What is this?"

😳Do you find your cheeks getting red as you wonder what to say to them?
🤓Or do you feel confident answering this question?

As a psychotherapist and a parent to 3 kids - I've been asked my fair share of tricky questions.

Here's what we want to remember:

💫Tricky questions are opportunities. 💫

When we take a moment to show our children that their questions (even the ones that make us feel uncomfy) are important to us, we do one really important thing:

❤️We teach them they are safe coming to us with all their difficult questions.

Right now, that question might sound like: "Daddy, what are these?"

But, down the road, these questions might sound like: "Dad, can you come pick me up? This party doesn't feel safe."

🔥How we respond to these questions NOW sets the stage for our child to come to us with all their difficult questions in the future.

It’s also a great time to reflect on your values and ensure you answer your kids in a way that aligns with your family.

Swipe through the post for a few things to keep in mind as you answer your child's tricky questions!

👉PS: Did you hear? Our body safety and consent course will be available until the end of next week - and then we are closing enrolment. This course will help you get comfortable with everything from answering tricky questions and naming body parts to keeping your kids safe from abuse. Comment CONSENT10 below for more information!!)🥰

💕 Letting kids overhear good things about them is a simple - yet profound concept.

Even as an adult this rings true.

For example, your partner says: "Vera, I appreciate you; you work so hard."

This is meaningful to you. But imagine you also heard them tell their mom: "I really appreciate Vera. She works so hard for our family. She's amazing."

🔥 How powerful would it be to overhear them sing your praises?

The same goes for our kids.

Of course, we want to tell them these amazing things, but there's also something powerful in letting them overhear you praise them.

✨The words we say to our kids when they are little will eventually become how they talk about themselves.✨

So, the next time you see your child's stuffy - say something nice to the stuffy about your child. Watch their eyes light up, and your bond grow as they hear you compliment them. 💕
