Working with children with sexual behavior problems

the long version

What is normative sexual play? Why do children develop sexual preoccupations? In what circumstances are children's sexual behaviors abusive or harmful--and how can professionals and parents respond effectively? Based on extensive clinical experience, this book provides authoritative guidance and practical tools in a challenging area for child mental health professionals. Eliana Gil and Jennifer A. Shaw explain the many possible causes of sexual behavior problems and demonstrate treatment procedures that have been shown to work with 4- to 11-year-olds and their families.
