In this episode, Sex Educator, Alisha Lunsford, and I explore the crucial body safety rules every child should know by age five so that you can feel equipped with the tools needed to foster confidence and autonomy in your kids. We cover modeling consent, trusting intuition, managing tricky situations, and much more.
You can grab the free PDF summary of the top 5 rules here.
Remember:
- Start the conversation about body safety early and repeat it often.
- Use everyday moments to reinforce these safety principles.
- Model respectful, consent-based behavior in your own interactions with your children.
More about Alisha Lunsford:
"I’m Alisha. I’m a straight, cisgender female and sex educator.
I understand that as parents, we often feel overwhelmed and under-prepared for many of the roles we take on. Ultimately, we’re expected to keep our little humans physically and mentally safe, happy and healthy – and whether we like it or not, sexuality impacts each of these needs.
I provide straightforward sex education for parents of toddlers, teens and in-betweens. I focus on both mental and physical health while providing insight on a variety of content ranging from safety, sexual predators, puberty, LGBTQIA+, consent, porn exposure, birth control, and all the nooks and crannies throughout."
