What is consent and permission?

Consent means when you ask your parents / carer for permission.Permission means when you have been given consent from your parents / carer for permission.
It is okay to say no.

Whether it is in school or online it is always okay to say no . This is because if you are told to do something you shouldn’t  , you shall say no . However , sometimes you need to be careful because in school if you are told to do something by a teacher you have to do it . If  you are told to do something without permission by an adult you might get into trouble , even if someone else told you to do it.If a friend asks you for consent on something it is okay to say no ,because it may be wrong . Company’s may ask for permission if your signing up for a game or a shop newsletter .

A story about not asking for permission .

There is a story about a boy called Zishan who shared a code to his friend called Maisie . Maisie shared the code with people Zishan does not know ,Maisie had an excuse it was that they were friends from school but really they were strangers . Zishan said if you asked me then i would of said yes but she did not.

That is why you should always ask for consent .
