Why talk about it?
Consent is a life skill that should be practiced long before it has anything to do with sex. Children first learn about consent through interactions in their own home, observing how boundaries are communicated, respected, or disregarded in everyday situations. As children grow, the talks deepen to include an understanding of consent within sexual and intimate experiences as well. When children learn about consent and respect for bodily autonomy, they stay safer and better able to navigate interactions with others in healthy ways.
