My body, my rules: In all the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season, it can be easy for children to get overwhelmed — with parties and holiday get together, they may be seeing lots of new or unfamiliar family members and friends. It’s important to remind children that they can say no to hugs, kisses, and other physical signs of affection if they are uncomfortable. Review “my body, my rules,” and give children polite ways to decline any signs of affection that they don’t want to give or receive.
