The Australian government\u2019s new campaign\u00a0Consent Can\u2019t Wait<\/a>\u00a0challenges us all to improve our understanding of consent. It asks a series of questions to illustrate this issue is\u00a0more complex<\/a>\u00a0than simplistic \u201cno means no\u201d messaging.<\/p>\n

The campaign invites viewers to consider\u00a0the nuances of consent<\/a>, so we can raise these important issues with\u00a0children and young people<\/a>\u00a0in our lives.<\/p>\n

But what is a good age to start talking about consent? How do parents tackle such conversations when this information probably wasn\u2019t readily discussed in our own upbringing?<\/p>\n

How it starts \u2013 early childhood (0\u20135 years)<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Small\u00a0on-going conversations<\/a>\u00a0about consent that start early are best. At this age, children are becoming aware of their bodies, and this is a great\u00a0time to start<\/a>\u00a0basic conversations around\u00a0consent<\/a>,\u00a0body safety<\/a>\u00a0and boundaries.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re tickling or rough-housing with your child and they ask you to stop, respect this. Similarly, you want your child to learn that\u00a0they should listen to and respect<\/a>\u00a0the feelings of others.<\/div>\n
\n

We should also\u00a0not force a child to give a hug or a kiss<\/a>\u00a0to a family member if they don\u2019t feel comfortable. Teaching them to be polite and respectful without having to cross their own personal boundaries is key.<\/p>\n

Bath time can also be a great setting to discuss how children\u2019s bodies are\u00a0their own<\/a>\u00a0and the basics of\u00a0boundaries and privacy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Childhood and primary school (6\u201311 years)<\/strong><\/h4>\n

As children enter school, their social networks start to expand and the potential for conflict is inevitable. As parents, we can help them to\u00a0navigate this time<\/a>\u00a0and unpack more developed ideas around consent.<\/p>\n

The focus at this stage should be to ensure young people have the necessary skills to\u00a0form healthy friendships<\/a>\u00a0and to engage respectfully with others. You may also want your child to recognise the\u00a0diversity<\/a>\u00a0and difference that exists in our society.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important your child starts to learn about\u00a0verbal<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0non-verbal communication<\/a>. Body language can provide great insight into how another person might be feeling, and children can learn how to tune in and respect others as much as possible.<\/p>\n

As your child starts to form a\u00a0stronger personal identity<\/a>, help them identify and maintain their own personal boundaries.\u00a0Demonstrating how to respond<\/a>\u00a0if someone is behaving or touching them in a way that makes them feel uncomfortable helps develop skills to\u00a0communicate boundaries<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Finally, remember that young people begin to connect in online spaces too. Encourage your child to think critically about\u00a0what they see online and who they talk to<\/a>. Teaching children to\u00a0engage respectively<\/a>\u00a0can assist with\u00a0consensual experiences online<\/a>\u00a0too.<\/p>\n

Adolescence and secondary school (12\u201318 years)<\/strong><\/h4>\n

As we transition through the adolescent years, those foundations skills that first applied to relationships with friends and family,\u00a0extend to romantic relationships<\/a>, where consent is important for\u00a0respectful, safe and healthy experiences<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If they haven\u2019t already grasped the notion, it\u2019s important for adolescents to understand that\u00a0consent can be withdrawn<\/a>. People have the right to\u00a0change their mind at any time<\/a>, even if it might be an activity they had previously agreed to.<\/p>\n

Navigating sexual consent can be more complex than\u00a0seeking and giving permission<\/a>. Consent must be\u00a0voluntary and freely given, without coercion or pressure<\/a>. Just because we are in a romantic relationship with someone, this does not mean we should be expected to engage in particular behaviours if they cross our boundaries.<\/p>\n

Adolescents also need to understand that\u00a0rejection is inevitable<\/a>. Sometimes people won\u2019t want to go on a date with us, to give us a kiss, or to engage in a particular sexual act and that\u2019s OK. Encourage young people to\u00a0not take rejection personally<\/a>, respect the wishes and boundaries of others, and be vigilant to\u00a0verbal<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0non-verbal<\/a>\u00a0cues.<\/a><\/p>\n

Adolescents will also start to communicate regularly with peers online and may\u00a0engage in sexting<\/a>:\u00a0sending intimate images<\/a>\u00a0to one another. Teach them to express and\u00a0practise consent<\/a>\u00a0to be safe online and be\u00a0mutually respectful of each other<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Being accessible and inclusive<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Consent can be complex, particularly for minority populations.<\/p>\n

Yarning Quiet Ways<\/a>\u00a0is a resource designed for\u00a0First Nations families<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Sexuality Education Counselling and Consultancy Agency (SECCA)\u00a0offers resources<\/a>\u00a0suitable for helping to navigate discussions with\u00a0people with disability<\/a>\u00a0or people who require resources written in simple English.<\/p>\n

The Rainbow Project has\u00a0resources<\/a>\u00a0about consent for LGBTQI+ people.<\/p>\n

Final tips for families<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Start the conversations early<\/a>\u00a0focusing on\u00a0basic ethics<\/a>,\u00a0rights<\/a>\u00a0and bodily autonomy. Consent conversations can build in an age-appropriate way and\u00a0extend to discussions about sexual relationships<\/a>\u00a0as children age.<\/p>\n

While discussions should be age-appropriate where possible, it may be relevant to\u00a0introduce certain topics earlier<\/a>\u00a0if need be too.<\/p>\n

Communication about consent is best when it\u2019s direct, free from judgement and maintains an open-dialogue. These discussions\u00a0might feel awkward<\/a>\u00a0or uncomfortable but they are important. Homes are\u00a0critical places for these discussions<\/a>\u00a0and it is important that your child sees you as an approachable and askable parent.<\/p>\n

Education around consent\u00a0won\u2019t stop sexual violence on it\u2019s own<\/a>, so it\u2019s important to have these discussions\u00a0alongside other areas of importance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Discussions around\u00a0challenging gender stereotypes<\/a>,\u00a0modelling respect and how to intervene<\/a>,\u00a0the importance of empathy<\/a>, as well as online safety such as\u00a0sexting and pornography<\/a>\u00a0can assist.<\/p>\n
