Episode 052 - Sex, Disability, Parents, The Media and Consent

This episode had me riled up and angry about the way the media ran stories from parents of children with disabilities without the children's consent. I focus on 2 stories here about two parents who consider hiring sex workers for their sons to experience sex. I had lots of things to say about that (mostly angry things), and I also touch on disability activists[ Carly Findlay](http://www.kidspot.com.au/parenting/real-life/in-the-news/dear-katie-price-a-disability-doesnt-take-away-your-right-to-privacy) and [Kim Sauder's](https://crippledscholar.com/2017/07/09/issues-of-disabled-sexuality-and-consent-when-parents-get-involved-in-their-childrens-sex-lives/) thoughts on the matter. What do you think about parents talking about their disabled child's sex lives to the media?
