A member asked:

How will i know if my 5 year old daughter has been exposed to sexual abuse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ask: A 5 yo has enough verbal skills to tell you if someone has "touched them". If so let them describe the setting & event. Be sure to confirm ahead of time that they are not in trouble and it is not a "secret", no matter who it might be. Do not push the issue. If truly concerned you can ask your doc to refer you to a professional who can pursue the information.
