Wouldn't that just be more confusing... if a child was attacked and they didn't know it was 'rape' then how could they explain what had happened to them...They wouldn't have a clue how, what or why.

Like I said I think 11 is just slightly too young for some children. Not for others. I was quite "worldly" as a young child, I loved TV and movies and age ratings were never a concern, and I would say I probably knew and understood a lot of the world's "uglies" from at least 9 or 10. On the other hand, I know a girl who was terrified watching "Doctor Who" when she was 11, and didn't sleep for weeks. So it's just too much for some. 13/14 I would say is a better age for learning about these things in more detail, as that's when most teenagers will have started to develop sexually and some will have started to "experiment" a bit. I do think it's important to educate about it then. |

Once you teach them to be confident to talk to someone about it,and that it is not their fault, then surely it would follow that they would tell someone about being raped as well. The majority of these assaults are by somebody known to the victim, very difficult for the child to talk about it, especially if it is someone they trust and love. In an ideal world the parents would teach their kids, unfortunately, sometimes it is the parents that are assaulting their kids. |
