Children Keep Secrets Brilliantly. How Do We Get Them to Talk to Us?

Children Keep Secrets Brilliantly. How Do We Get Them to Talk to Us?

YouTube link - https://youtu.be/2plS3Q2oDUs


Children keep secrets brilliantly. As a survivor of child sexual abuse, I know this better than anyone. I was abused between the ages of 8 and 10 and nobody ever found out. I showed no signs at school, I had great friends and I wasn’t scared of the man who did it.


In this talk to a room of safeguarding professionals, I explain why so many children and teenagers never come forward. We look at how easy it is to groom a child, why abuse can feel confusing or even exciting to a teenager and how the internet has given perpetrators direct access to young people.


Most importantly, I share a practical approach to changing this. When staff are trained, parents are confident and young people feel inspired to speak up, we can create an environment where children actually tell us what’s happening to them.


If you’re a DSL, teacher, social worker, police officer or anyone who works with children, this talk is for you.
