is at the foundation of healthy relationships, and many experts think that it’s also a fundamental lesson that can help prevent sexual abuse and sexual assault.

In other words: no kid should endure affection that’s unwanted, or be told that it’s normal to do so. In fact, some of the statements you might make to get your kids to accept a hug or kiss might be the same ones that an abuser will try to use down the road: “How about just a quick kiss?” “Do it because she loves you,” or “He’s come all this way to see you.”a hug or a kiss, it’s a really, really good idea to let your relatives know the rules of your family, too.
And just as it’s important to teach kids how to be comfortable saying, “no” to unwanted physical interactions, it’s incredibly important for adults to mirror the correct behavior when rejected.
