Did You Know?
Did you know? Encourage children to practice personal boundary safety rules -
All children should know their personal boundaries and know that they have a right to be safe in their own bodies. Encourage children to speak up and say “no” when they feel scared, uncomfortable, or confused. They should know to get away from an unsafe situation as quickly as possible, and to tell a safe adult what happened. When a child says they don’t want to show affection, an adult should prioritize that child’s boundary. For more information, read the VIRTUS® article “How to Advocate Directly with Youth for their Safety and Wellbeing” at

¿Sabia Que? Anime a los niños a practicar las normas de seguridad sobre los límites personales -
Todos los niños deben conocer sus límites personales y saber que tienen derecho a sentirse seguros en su propio cuerpo. Anime a los niños a expresarse y decir “no” cuando se sientan asustados, incómodos o confundidos. Deben saber que deben alejarse de una situación peligrosa lo antes posible y contarle a un adulto de confianza lo que ha sucedido. Cuando un niño dice que no quiere mostrar afecto, un adulto debe dar prioridad a los límites de ese niño.
