The Sexual Education of the Mothers of Middle Childhood Children for Protecting Them Against Harassment

Abstract

This study aims to identify the role of educating the mothers sexually for protecting their children against harassment. It highlights the importance of choosing the Middle childhood period, the role of family in sexual education, methods of mothers' education, reasons of harassment and how to preserve our children against sexual harassment.Through reviewing the literature, and the theoretical framework, the researcher concluded that in case of not educating mothers sexually about their children, the children will be prone to sexual harassment. Accordingly, by providing mothers with needed simplified information suitable for their age group, and allowing a space of dialogue to mothers with their children to reply to their answers, will lessen the risk of exposing them to harassment.
