You have the right to not be touched in ways that are hurtful or in ways you do not like. Your feelings are important. Trust your feelings. Share with us how you feel. Tell us when you are scared, sad, happy or worried.
Touches are important.
We all need hugs and pats and squeezes. Not all touches are pleasant. Some touches can confuse us, such as hugs that are too long or tickling that starts out fun but no longer feels good or if the other person won't stop. It is not your fault. Sometimes older people try to make the child promise not to tell.
