There are laws about the age of consent to have sex, but what do they actually mean for parents and caregivers? This episode explores what’s behind age of consent laws and how a parent can best support their teenagers to navigate their sexual development while adhering to the law.
Adie and Tom talk about all this and more with none other than their boss, Lucy!
Lucy is the manager of SASS’s Primary Prevention team, is legally qualified and though no longer works as a lawyer, brings a legal lens to the grey areas of sexual intimacy.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
