Sexuality expert says parents should seek consent before changing baby's diaper
Australian news This afternoon
In an interview with the ABC, sexuality expert Deanne Carson said it is important to teach a child that "their response matters" from a young age, and provided an example of a parent asking their baby for consent to change their diaper. While some people agree that teaching kids about personal autonomy from a young age is crucial, others take issue with the suggestion that a child can provide consent at all.
