'Some Secrets Should Never Be Kept' is a beautifully illustrated children's picture book that sensitively broaches the subject of keeping children safe from inappropriate touch. We teach water and road safety, but how do we teach Body Safety to young children in a way that is neither frightening nor confronting? This book is an invaluable tool for parents, caregivers, teachers and healthcare professionals to broach the subject of safe and unsafe touch in a non-threatening and age-appropriate way. The comprehensive notes to the reader and discussion questions at the back of the book support both the reader and the child when discussing the story. Suitable for children aged 3 to 12 years.Story is a great medium to discuss difficult topics. 'Some Secrets Should Never Be Kept' was written to ensure children are armed with knowledge if they are ever touched inappropriately; and from the first unsafe touch, a child will understand to tell a trusted adult and keep on telling until they are believed. It is an important book and one that all children need to hear. Forewarned is forearmed! This book is supported by free activities and child protection resources on our website. 'Some Secrets Should Never Be Kept' is available in 7 languages including English, Spanish, German, Chinese, Japanese, Italian and French.Body Safety Education (also known as protective behaviours or child sexual abuse prevention education) involves so much more than focusing on stranger danger. In fact, 95% of sexually abused children will know their abuser and only 5% will be strangers. It is also crucial for children to learn that they must never keep secrets that make them feel bad or uncomfortable (in fact, we teach it's best not to have secrets in families, only happy surprises). The trouble with secrets is that they are the main tool used by child molesters to ensure children remain silent about the abuse. Ensuring the secret is kept is of utmost importance to the perpetrator. Therefore, threats and insisting no-one will believe the child is used as a way of controlling the child to be silent. Through Body Safety Education parents and children will learn the importance of there being no secrets between us.Parents and carers need to be on the lookout for signs of sexual abuse in children and grooming behaviour which is often focused on themselves as well as their children. The answer to the question, 'How do I keep kids safe from sexual abuse?' is simple; teach them Body Safety Education from a very young age. Always use the correct names for their genitals, ensure they know that the parts covered by their swimsuit are known as their private parts, and that private means 'just for you', and consequently not for sharing. This is known as the swimsuit lesson. When you teach your child that 'your body belongs to you' you are empowering them with confidence through knowledge. Body Safety Education also involves teaching your child that no-one can touch their private parts, and if they do, they must tell a trusted adult until believed.Kids need to be safe as well as feel safe. Teaching a child that private means 'just for you' and that their private parts are found under their swimsuit is a valuable lesson that can prevent child molestation. Approximately 1 in 3 girls and 1 in 6 boys will be sexually abused before their 18th birthday. You can help stop child abuse by teaching social and physical boundaries to kids and that some parts are not for sharing. A child needs be able to proclaim loudly and with conviction that, 'My body belongs to me', 'I am the boss of my body' and that 'From my head to my toes, I say what goes'.

This book is a complement of sixteen short stories told with a range from darkness to a sense of humor. On a quest for the right fit for a qualified therapist. It is a rollercoaster of a ride and it is if you are a fly on the wall of all these sessions.

A compelling collection of personal essays that reminds us of the power of love and writing to connect us, despite the forces that seek to keep us separate.“What if we survive by converting what we get into what we need?” asks Jennifer Bowen Hicks in a series of linked essays that offer care and attention as balm for our contemporary loneliness. The founding director of one of the most groundbreaking prison writing workshops in the United States, she has seen firsthand the effects of absence and isolation. Reading and writing, she posits, can be radically connective acts—proof, finally, that we’re not alone. Written during a time when division is constantly being sown between us, The Book of Kin argues powerfully for our need to understand ourselves and each other as full, complex beings worthy of love.From the unexpectedly salvific attentions of a cow to the time-bending drama of watching a child grow into an adult, and from pastoral carceral settings to the spectacle of an antiquated prison rodeo, Bowen Hicks examines a wild spectrum of shapes that care can take—and what happens when its absence is marked. These unflinching, surprisingly funny, and emotionally vulnerable essays are driven by a curiosity to uncover what might be gleaned from various separations, or vanishments, in her own life—from the shadow of her own father to disappeared backyard chickens—and in American life writ large, where “harm is shared, and healing is too.” The Book of Kin is a rhapsodic debut that explores the beautiful, determined ways we imperfectly care for one another and how we might keep trying, despite it all.
