One step closer to Idiocracy becoming reality: Consent to change diapers

Y’all read too much into nonsense that nobody will take seriously.

Sounds like it’s more about getting them to understand why it’s happening instead of actually getting them to say “yes or no”

No child still in diapers is having a logical conversation about anything, especially their diaper changes.

I'm pretty sure a child soaked in shite can figure out why it happens pretty quick.

I’m thinking more along the lines of these new age preschools hiring queer freak shows needing to ask consent from the parents to change their kids diaper

Sane people will read that a see it as batshit crazy. But there is a sizable (an growing) segment of society who believe whatever the “experts” tell them. Some prime examples:

There a whole lot of feeble minded and gullible simpletons out there who much prefer to let the “experts” do all the thinking for them and are willing to follow along blindly with whatever these so-called “experts” say.

There has been a lot of focus on the need to teach older children about consent. But parents should not wait until kids are teenagers to talk about appropriate touching or how everyone has the right to say what happens to their body. In fact, the earlier parents talk about this with their kids, the better. This way, consent becomes a normal, everyday part of life. Importantly, it also helps to keep kids safe from abuse as they learn what is and isn’t OK when it comes to their bodies. You can start teaching little ones about consent even before they can talk. Here’s how you can do this during everyday care.

Try not to rush
Nappy changes can easily be seen by parents as a task to rush through and just “get done”. But this can be a time to help children learn about consent and how their bodies work. Toileting is something young children will take charge of in the future. What happens before learning how to use the toilet should not be a mystery.

Be clear about what’s going on
At the start of a nappy change, ensure your child knows what is happening. Get down to their level and say, “you need a nappy change” and then pause so they can take this in. Then you can say, “do you want to walk/crawl with me to the change table, or would you like me to carry you?” Observe their facial expressions and body language to check if they understand what is happening. Aim to be positive, gentle and responsive to your child.

Don’t distract your child
Children are often encouraged to be distracted in nappy changes, to focus their attention on something else. For example, a well-meaning parent signs a song to them or gives them a rattle to hold. But it’s important children notice when someone is touching their most intimate parts. Even in early infancy, children can respond to consistent verbal cues. So try to use similar language and follow regular nappy changing routines that involve children in conversation. For example, “can you please lift up your bottom so I can slide your nappy out?” These habits plant the seed of the idea that a child has the right to say what happens to their body.

Be kind to yourself
Of course some nappy changes may need to be more rushed or in an odd place. Perhaps you are late for work or you need to pull over on the side of the road to deal with an urgent poosplosion. The habits we outline above may also seem to add more work to the already demanding parental load. So try and do them as often as possible and be kind to yourself if every nappy change isn’t a perfect moment of connection, you are supporting a small child after all.

Use the proper terms
While you are doing this, use the correct anatomical terms – vulva, penis, anus. Parents may feel uncomfortable doing this and think more childish names should be used. But this keeps children safe as it means they can then inform trusted adults about their experiences with all the people who care for them. Use these same principles when you are changing their clothes or giving them a bath.

Give kids simple choices
Away from the change table, look for ways to provide opportunities for children to have choice and a sense of agency and autonomy in everyday life situations. This helps nurture their independence and can reduce power struggles. Some examples of this could be, "do you want to wear your blue or your yellow shirt today", "do you want apple or pear", "do you want to go to the park or for a walk around the block?"

Recognise their body language
In previous pieces, experts have noted how you should not force your kids to hug other adults or relatives if they don’t want to. But parents can also be aware of their own behaviour – how your child is reacting when you’re picking them up or giving them a hug. Sometimes you may have no choice (for example, picking a child up before crossing a busy road). But where possible, use children’s body language and cues to take their views into account.

You just worked yourself up over a nothing article that's basically telling you to teach your kid about what's happening to their body.

It’s funny that these same people promoting this don’t feel the need for consent from our daughters to send trannies into their restrooms.

Lot of people will believe this shite, thats how fricked up society is
