Good Touch• A good touch makes you feel warm,
comfortable, and safe inside. • A good touch for me is when
someone gives me a hug to say hello.• What are some good touches for
you?
Bad Touch• A bad touch does not feel good. It
may make you feel uneasy or bothered inside.
• A bad touch for me is when someone pinches me on purpose.
• What are some bad touches for you?
How many of us like:High fives?
Hugs?Kisses?
Rubs on the back?
From family or people we are
comfortable with?
How about those same kind of touches from
people we do not know, we do not like, we do not feel comfortable with, or
we do not trust?
Who can you tell if someone touches you in a way that makes you uncomfortable?
• Parents• Grandparents• Teacher• Counselor• Pastor• Other trusted adults
Help!!!• If the person you tell does not
know how to help you or does not do anything to help you, what can you do?
