The sexuality of children aged 0-12

A child’s sexuality differs from that of an adult in both physical and psychological terms. It manifests itself in different ways, depending on the child’s age, level of development and personality, and also varies according to his or her family and social environment.
This book, which will be of interest to parents and education professionals alike, explores the place of sexuality in a child’s overall development.

• The different physical, psychological and social stages in the evolution of a child’s sexuality.
• The main issues, from both the parent’s and the child’s point of view (sexualized play and

  behavior, sexual orientation and gender identity, etc.).

• Ways of thinking about and intervening in sexuality education.
• Ways to help prevent sexual assault.
