Talking with teens about consent can feel awkward, but it’s a critical conversation for their safety and well-being. In this episode, we talk about consent with CHC psychologist and Director of Clinical Training, Dr. Carlina Wheeler. Join us for this conversation as we consider what consent really means and why it’s essential in all relationships. We’ll explore practical ways parents can open the conversation, even when their teen seems unwilling to engage, and discuss situations where consent is not possible, such as when someone is under the influence or pressured. Tune in for insights and strategies to help your teen navigate boundaries with confidence and respect.
