Our 9-year-old son came home from school & said that some boys at recess offered to play with him if 'he hugged & kissed a girl.'

He responded to them, "No, that's inappropriate," & told us he didn't mind not being able to play with those boys after all. Afterwards his teacher shared she was happy he stood up to peer pressure.

Y'all—it's never too early to teach boys about consent and boundaries. Have the conversation. Then have it again. And again. Boys will be the boys we teach them to be.

I may never get an invite to participate in global conferences on curbing plastic pollution but I'll continue using available platforms to speak my mind and share my pictures, with the hope that my input will help in some way, even little.
