@fox4newsdallasfortworth: A Namibian teacher’s aggressively sung tune about body safety went viral on social media. “These are my private parts … No one should touch them,” Gelda Waterboer sings as she waves and points fiercely. “If you touch my private parts, I will tell my mother, I will tell my father [and] I will tell my teacher.” Footage shared on TikTok shows Waterboer and her first-grade students singing the song in their classroom in Otjiwarongo in August. “Make sure they put in the emotion,” she wrote. Since it was posted, the video amassed more than 80 million views and 10.3 million likes. In follow-up videos, Waterboer discusses sexual abuse in her community and the importance of kids being “aggressive about their safety.”

I personally think this is a good thing. Having a daughter and 3 sons myself at this age they can be manipulated in to thinking it’s ok. This song emphasises to tell parents and care givers if somebody crosses a line. She’s doing the song in a sense of making younger children understand boundaries. Obviously when they’re older and are taught consent they will have the knowledge on consent.

Great! Kids need to be taught that it is not OK to be touched in those areas. Teaching this helps a child know its not ok when an adult tries something. I personally think it helps the child stand against abuse with confidence.

When I first got touched at 6 years old. The next day I went to school and told my principal. She called the cops. Her and the cops laughed at me and told me I didn't know what I was talking about. ( North Pemiscot Elementary School in Wardell, MO )
