The one bit I'd throw out in counterpoint to your portion regarding that section 4.2, and teaching consent to children as young as five, is that I actually *agree* that it's important to teach children that they can *withhold* that consent. I think too many children are taught (likely as part of getting past that stage where even things they actually *want* get a reflexive "No!") that they're not allowed to say no to an adult. And I think we need to teach them that it can, in fact, be acceptable to say no to an adult. In particular, in situations involving sexuality.
