Children are most comfortable when they know what to expect. We suggest that you explain to your child that he or she will be meeting with a concerned adult to talk about what happened to him/her. Do not tell your child what to say; simply tell your child to tell the truth. Tell your child the person that will be talking with him/her talks to lots of children and it is that person’s job to make sure kids are safe. Please reassure your child that he or she is not in trouble and is not going to this appointment because he or she has done something wrong.
