I going out on a limp here, but I’m guessing alot of people who downvoted me dont have kids, and weren’t sexually abused. In my experience, kids will try everything they are aware of as soon as possible. Maybe its not a direct 1to1 relationship, but most kids push the boundaries of experience if given the slightest opportunity. That’s what being a kid is all about. And that’s why it is so dangerous to teach them about these topics so early.
If they’re educated properly about it then there’s nothing to fear, that’s kinda the point
Proper education and availability of contraceptives means less accidental pregnancies and less likelyhood of STDs spreading
Learning about consent and internalizing it at a young age means SA will be less of a concern as well

Kids should absolutely have the vocabulary to explicitly describe non consensual sexual acts done to them.
Going to the police and using the words “masturbated” “ejaculated” will get a much more thorough investigation than “rubbed” and “peed”
We all down voted you for your bad opinions, and if you really are a teacher we all feel bad for those poor kids.
You can tell they haven’t actually read this book, or many books at all really.
The state of American education.
