Hi my name is golu. Everyone loves me.
My family loves me. They hug me and kiss me often. I feel happy when my mommy gives me a hug and a kiss after I wake up.
I feel nice when my papa gives me a good night kiss I feel excited when grandma and grandpa come to visit and they hug and kiss me.
I also hug my friends and family when I am happy
When do you feel good, nice and happy ???
When I go to the park with my mother, some people come and pull my cheeks. And some touch my back. I feel bad and unsafe. I don t like it when they touch me.
Do you also feel the same??? When????
I will feel threatened and scared when someone slaps me, kicks me, pinches me, or hurts me, I don t like when a stranger hugs and kisses me.
My mother says that nobody should touch me if I don't want to be touched. She also tells me that if a person touches me in a way that I don t like then it is a bad touch.
It is a bad touch if a person forces me to touch him or her. It is a bad touch if a person asks me not to tell anyone. http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRencvPZeTf0mxpDG5jGAXxY8T2L6S3lYa5kIcg-Am32RtjIGKuGge2r6w

My mother told me to do certain things if I get a bad touch:- Say no! Tell the person that you don't like it and you don't want to be touched. Get away fast! Run away from the person whose touch you don't like.
Call for help. You can scream! Never stay alone with that person ever again. always tell someone you trust
This story deals with a sensitive topic, and in todays time this story is more relevant. Apart from socio emotional skills this story will enhance language, and problem solving skills in the children . while narrating the story parents/teachers can talk about certain points which will help in knowing what children feel about this issue. How many of us like hugs, kisses, and touches from people we know, love, and trust? How about those same kinds of touches from people we do not know, do not like, or do not trust? When we get touches, we get feelings inside. Good touches give us good feelings. Sometimes touches can give us bad feelings inside. Sad Frightened Unloved Unwanted
TOUCHING RULES No one should ever touch your private parts except to keep you clean or healthy. Never agree to keep it a secret. Tell someone you trust. Whose Fault Is It? The Person Who Did the Touching parent can also show pictures of people touching each other and ask children is it a good touch or is it a bad touch.
