Worried about a childs sexual behaviour?
As well as developing physically and emotionally, children will also display sexual behaviour as a normal part of growing up. A child’s sexual development expresses itself in a range of behaviours, most of which are healthy and normal.However, sometimes a child’s behaviour may be unusual, worrying or even harmful. The NSPCC have produced guidance that outlines behaviours typical of each child’s developmental stage. This briefing can help you decide whether there is a cause for concern about a child or young person’s behaviour, and how to respond to these concerns in the first instance.
