Consent Based Parenting: How to Raise Children In Charge of Their Own Bodies

Everyone is in charge of their own body. On the surface this seems like an obvious statement, but it is in fact, hugely counter cultural. In Consent Based Parenting, teacher and mother Abby Norman, further unpacks her popular Tedx Talk on the idea of consent based parenting. We are currently raising our kids in a world where it is romantic to pursue a woman even after she has said no, where "you know you want it" is a catchy line in a summer hit. After a disturbing conversation in her classroom, Abby looked at the way she was raising her own girls, and realized she had to make some changes. In this short manifesto Abby Norman not only is honest about the changes she has made in her house, but she gives compelling suggestions if you too want to make sure your kids know that everyone is in charge of their own body.
