    The proposed bill in Maryland defines consent as "the unambiguous and voluntary agreement between all participants in each physical act within the course of interpersonal relationships."https://n.pr/2NPKNTV

        Yes! We already taught our two boys who are 6 and 4 what kind of touch is okay and what isn’t. If they know then they KNOW!

        My son is 4. He knows not to hug, hold hands, or kiss his friends without some form of consent. We can start right there.

        My boys, aged 7 and 4, have heard since they were very young that no one needs to say “No” or “Stop” more than once, regardless of the situation. They may not yet know why I’m stressing this, but it’s important for me to help build that into their mindset.

        Humans develop better sense of morality at a bit older age. It's been shown that toddlers are naturally narcissistic as it helps them survive in a world where resources may be scarce. Human brains change to be more accommodating later. Find that age, teach then.

        ABSOLUTELY! “Boys will be boys” is unacceptable and they should learn that at a young age. Everyone should be responsible for their own actions—males (especially) included!

        Putting Kavanaugh's name in the headline proves what a hack the author is ......

        And you, my friend, have missed the point. Kavanaugh was NEVER taught no means NO!

        And you, my troll, have missed the point, you have ZERO evidence of that. Just name the date and location of the alleged incident ? #InnocentUntilProvenGuilty
