We teach children various safety messages when they are growing up but how do you talk to them about sexual abuse without using scary words or making them feel worried?
This can be a challenge for parents, carers and teachers which is why the NSPCC launched a campaign in 2012 called Talk PANTS. The Underwear Rule (also referred to as PANTS) is a simple way to have age-appropriate conversations with children to help you keep them safe from sexual abuse.
