Abstract
This document is designed to assist the medical provider when a child with problematic sexual
behaviors (PSB) presents in the clinic setting. These guidelines are focused on a multidisciplinary
team approach with an educational component. There may be times when a provider may not
have access to all of the team members and these guidelines will provide some suggested next
steps. In addition, the Appendices contain information on normal and abnormal behaviors most
frequently seen in children less than 12 years of age as well as discuss when children first begin
engaging in sexual relationships. Medical providers should understand that children with PSB
are very different from adolescent sex offenders.
