Christine Babinec is on the #ReadingWithYourKids #Podcast to celebrate her #ChildrensBook Want A Hug. Christine is a licensed professional counselor currently practicing in Portland, OR, Her work is rooted in social justice, and Chris has devoted her career to working with survivors of trauma and abuse. Chris tells us it’s never too early to teach children about the necessity of boundaries and the power of consent. Want a Hug? is a book about communication, understanding, mutuality, listening, and love. Far from a didactic lecture, this joyful picture book affirms that developing consent skills is a natural, positive, fun, and affirming experience. This book will help kids learn that it’s okay to say no and, perhaps more importantly, it’s okay to say yes. The power is in the choice.
