Learning Disability and Special Needs. Wednesday, November 3, 2010. A wonderful link that expresses with simplicity and clarity the ways a child can protect him/herself by differentiating the different types of touches.May be an uncomfortable topic for many parents but in the real world it needs to be dealt with complete awareness and honesty that it does exist. It is one that children can watch and understand : -. Recognising good and bad feelings when you are touched. Confiding in a trusting adult.

Learning Disability and Special Needs. Tuesday, February 14, 2012. Random thoughts of a mom.
