[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Piggybacking: Any good books or videos to use as a springboard for these discussions, and things like good touch/bad touch?[/quote] The Safe Side DVD that PP recommended is good - definitely a bit cheesy, but it has a good approach. With regard to good touch and bad touch, there's a book called A Very Touching Book for Little People and For Big People that I've used with my kids. It breaks down touches in a slightly different way: good touches (like hugs and kisses from family), bad touches (like kicking and hitting), and "secret touches"(touches to the private parts of your body that someone tells you to keep secret). I find that this book promotes a child's sense of bodily autonomy - it stresses that when we are all grown up, it's our right to choose to share our bodies with someone we love, and it's wrong for adults to take that choice away from kids.
