If you’ve been following the news, you’ll know that child sexual abuse is a major problem on our island and serious cause for concern. In our final installment of Cocktail & Convo for 2017, we have chosen this very important topic to be our focus.

- How parents can teach children the body parts that are considered private;
- Signs that should be not ignored

- The need to teach children assertive language skills
- And more…
