How do you teacher toddler the difference betwen good touch and bad touch?

Question

I have a thre year old boy and a two yr old girl

Answer 1

Clarify!


Make sure they know a BAD touch is when someone touches the areas that clothes cover.......or when someone makes them feel yucky



to classify a "good touch" may just further confuse them.......................Just specify............hugs are OK..................but I would explain the bad touch cuz there are alotta freaks out there!!



Good luck

Answer 2

First , you don't want to show them clearly about the touches, they are so babies, they only should see beautifull stuff.

Listen to me, the TEACHING level for kids would be easier when they are a bit older, but NOWWWWWWW, the best thing to do is BE AROUND THEM ALL the time, where can you leave them, unless you work, hence, try to teach now to TELL you everything that happend with them during the day..build a trust and SHELTER for them that if -God forbid- something happened, they would have no fear or anything to tell you..

but the best thing you can do is be around them, right infront of your sight.


it's shame that these days one can never trust even close people to us not to hurt out kids in anyway.. i know women who are afraid to leave their daughter with her own brother..

so the best thing i guess, is dedicating your time to your kids, who said being a mom is an easy job, maybe that's why they say that heaven is under mothers feet, and the she is the only PILLAr of the house.
Good luck.

Answer 3

wow this one i know all about, i have two young children myself and the best way to handle that is to sit the three year old down and the younger one to and tell them that it only ok to be touched there when getting bathed or when they go to the dr. and what ever you do let them know that if they are ever touched itis ok to tell you and that they will never get in trouble no matter what, and it is also common for children to explore the different parts of the body and if they do that be stern and tell them no, it is pretty effective, i hope i could help you good luck

Answer 4

Absolutely, teach them the difference. A good time to discuss this is during a check up with your physician. He knows how to talk to kids in the best way. He can teach you ways to communicate issues such as this.

Answer 5

anything that the swim suit covers should not be touched by anyone unless it is a doctor and they are hurt there. That is why it stays covered up...........it is private.
But, two is way too young ma'am.

Answer 6

I tell my daughter not to let anyone touch her privates. try going to babycenter they'll have better answers.I've actually told my daughter to yell loudly for me if anyone she doesnt know talks to her..that'll bite me in the a$$ when she goes to school this fall

Answer 7

that nobody EVER touches their private parts. the only one that can do that is mom or dad for bathing purposes. the doctor may if mommy or daddy is present.

Answer 8

since children learn by watching, show them. I think a good way to do that is to show them on each other. Take one child's hand and have them rub the others arm. While you do this say "Soft hands." and every time they hit or slap say " that hurts your (brother/sister). We use soft hands." and at that point reinforce what soft hands are by rubbing the arm again.

Answer 9

teach them that their bathing suit area is private and noone can touch there except mommy, daddy or themselves. and if anyone does or tries to tell them 'no' and tell mommy.

Answer 10

Induce vomiting , barf and pour the substance on the NO TOUCH areas.
