Unit Two: Sexual Abuse

If you find you need more space or you don't have access to a printer, remember that you can use your Resource Guide or plain paper to complete these questions.

Personal Boundaries:

Let us begin by exploring the concept of personal-space boundaries. Boundaries are an important concept to teach children who have been abused.

Write your thoughts about the following:

	How do you feel when someone stands "too close" to you?

	How do you feel when someone backs away from you when you are talking with them?

	Do you have different "boundaries" for family and loved ones versus strangers? Why?

Print out your responses to share with the trainers. Or, if you didn't have access to a printer, email this page. Type your name in the blank below and then hit the email button.
