‘Relationship Expert’ Wants Parents To Get Baby’s Consent Before Changing A Nappy

If there is one thing we are certain of in life, it’s the fact that people have an opinion. Some will even try to voice that opinion as loud as possible, despite the fact that very few people are listening.

The Internet really makes it easy for anyone to have such an opinion and to voice it for the world to hear. The funny thing is that the stranger the opinion, the more press it seems to receive.

That is what one expert is now experiencing, thanks to their unusual recommendation for parents. They are a self-proclaimed relationship expert, and they said that parents should ask for permission before changing a diaper.

We realize that there are a lot of issues revolving around consent these days, and it can be difficult to navigate them. As far as many parents are concerned, however, asking a baby’s permission before changing a dirty diaper is just out of the question.

To be honest, most parents are not very happy about the fact that they have to change diapers but it is a necessity if you are going to raise your children happy and healthy. Adding the extra layer of having to ask permission before doing so is above and beyond.

The woman who made this claim says that she is a ‘sexuality educator, speaker, and author.’ Her name is Deanne Carson and her unusual recommendation for parents is making waves.

She was on ABC in 2018 to share these insights. She said that this is typically done with children above the age of three but she also feels that consent is important to introduce at a much younger age.

She does admit that babies will not be able to verbally respond to the request for consent, but they should be able to give nonverbal communication with eye contact and in other forms.

She claims that it’s about setting up a culture of consent in the home, and asking if it is okay to change the nappy before doing so.

Carson went further to explain the process, saying that allowing a moment for anticipation and waiting for any nonverbal cues can help parents and toddlers communicate on a deeper level.

Perhaps the most interesting thing was the way the reporters reacted to the suggestion. Not only were they very verbal, but they were also wondering what would happen if the baby said no.

MY BOYS THINK WE’RE CAMPING… BUT THEY DON’T KNOW WE’RE HOMELESS 💔 They’re still asleep right now. All three of them, curled up under that thin blue blanket like it’s the coziest thing in the world. I watch their little chests rise and fall and pretend—for just a moment—that this is just a fun vacation. We set up the tent behind a rest stop just past the county line. Technically we shouldn’t be there, but it’s quiet. The security guy gave me a look yesterday that said he wasn’t going to kick us out. Not yet. I told the boys we were going camping. “Just us guys,” I said, trying to make it sound like an adventure. Like I didn’t just sell my wedding ring three days ago for gas money and a jar of peanut butter. The thing is… they’re still young enough not to know the truth. To them, sleeping on air mattresses and eating cereal out of paper cups is fun. They think I’m brave. Like I have a real plan. But the truth? I’ve been calling every shelter from here to Roseville, and no one has space for four. One place said maybe Tuesday. Maybe. Their mom left six weeks ago. Said she was going to her sister’s. Left a note and half a bottle of Advil on the counter. I haven’t heard from her since. I’ve been holding it together somehow. Washing up in gas station bathrooms. Making up bedtime stories. Tucking them in every night like everything’s okay. But last night… my middle one, Micah, mumbled something in his sleep. He said, “Daddy, I like this better than the motel.” And that just about broke me. Because he meant it. And because I know tonight might be the last night I can make this feel like a game. As soon as they wake up, I have to tell them something I’ve been dreading. And just as I reached for the zipper on the tent— (Continues in the first comment 🗨️👇)
