At Tough Topics Mom, we know it's never been more critical for parents to educate themselves and their kids about prevention. That's why we've updated our popular book, I Said No! Our new edition is more inclusive, less angry, and reflects the latest research. Many readers told us that the cover scared their child. We also heard from readers that they wanted more of a story they could connect and identify with. After much hardship and struggle over the decision to make changes, this new book has found a new home and will be published in Fall 2025.

It covers everything children need to know about body safety and how to prevent red-flag situations. Children can better relate to the stories presented with more diversity in characters and scenarios. We want every child to grow up feeling confident and aware of how to make healthy decisions. And we don't want kids scared.
We also created this book using a trauma-informed and research-based approach so that when you read it with your child, you will feel at ease. We realize that many moms who purchase body safety books like this may be survivors, and they are looking for ways to empower their kids without re-traumatizing themselves. 
Together, let's create a safer world for our kids one book at a time.
I Said No! is still available via resale - in the current edition on AMAZON. 

A goodbye to the old I Said No book.
