Description
No touch policies, where caregivers, teachers, and other child workers are being informed they cannot touch children in their care, are growing in popularity, Hands Off! critically engages no touch by sharing related stories from the field, stories that validate the popularity of no touch. No touch is presented and interrogated as a moral panic prevalent throughout our society. In an attempt to reframe no touch, sexuality is considered when evaluating child identity and the role of the caregivers.
