C*nsent in the Classroom: Milkshakes and Mandates

Asking for it

Show Notes

How do you talk to kids about sex? How do you do it well? These are questions no-one seems to want to tackle.

Well, except for Adair, that is. Adair Donaldson is a solicitor and consent educator and has been presenting to young people about these sorts of fun topics for well over a decade now.

He talks Hannah through his approach, including the myths he continues to face in the classroom, and why kids aren’t the real issue here - instead, it’s their parents.
