Assuming the child is pre-teen or teenager, providers build rapport if they interview him/her one-on-one without the parent present. Going over sexual health and risks is an important topic they can go over. Unfortunately, these sensitive topics cannot be disclosed to the parent unless the child voluntarily discloses it. Sexual assault and abuse will be reported to the appropriate authorities
