When's the right time to talk PANTS?
Every family is different, and when and where you have these conversations may depend on your child’s age, or how grown up they are – it’s all about whatever feels natural for you and them. Please access the link below for more really helpful information and a fun video to support an age appropriate way to raise awareness:
Some examples of times you can talk PANTS are:
- After school – If they’ve had a lesson on personal relationships or Talk PANTS at school, ask them what they remember when they get home.
- Bathtime – you could start a conversation when you’re running your child’s bath, or helping them get dressed.
- Car journeys – this can be a great time to talk, and your child will have plenty of time to ask questions if they need.
- Reading our new PANTS storybook together.
- Singing – Sing along to our PANTS song with Pantosaurus!
- Swimming – A great time to say that what’s covered by swimwear is private.
- Walking – Walking home from school, or a weekend walk to the shops can help you both feel more at ease as you stroll and chat.
- Watching TV – If a TV show features a sensitive storyline, you can encourage them to talk about anything that upsets them.

Domestic abuse can happen to anybody at any time, it is not discriminatory on age, sexual orientation, gender, background, or religion.Superintendent Phil Booker from the Protecting Vulnerable People Unit said: “Protecting vulnerable people continues to remain a high priority for us as a force, and that does not change during the summer holidays.“We take all incidents extremely seriously and we would encourage anyone who believes they have been a victim or witness domestic abuse, in any form, to contact us as soon as possible. To report domestic abuse call us on 101 or if you are in immediate danger, call 999 and ask for the police. If you can’t speak, press 55 on your mobile or remain silent on your landline while the operator is on the line.
