This presentation aims to elucidate the complex landscape of sexual behaviors in children, focusing on defining these behaviors, understanding their relationship with child development, and providing guidelines for identifying and responding to problematic sexual behaviors. Sexual behaviors in children can often raise concerns and confusion among caregivers, educators, and professionals alike. By establishing a clear framework for understanding these behaviors, we can better support children's healthy development and address concerns effectively.
Objectives for this presentation:
· Learn to distinguish between healthy sexual development and problematic sexual behaviors
· Learn how to respond to sexual behaviors
· Teachable moments at age ranges
· Suspected child abuse reporting responsibilities in Texas
