⭐ It's possible to address traumatizing topics without creating #trauma in the process.
🔁 Our free game ADRIFT is an example of that. The game is about #consent but is appropriate for all ages. It's a quick game so you can replay it if you don't get each scenario correct on the first try.
🖼️ It was even re-created for the MOD. museum in Australia.
💜 April is #SAAM.

Margot Déage: "A girl who does not belong to a boy or a man can fall into the category of whore at any time, whatever her clothes or sexual practices."
Margot Déage: "Being in a position to say who’s a whore and who’s a good girl is a power in itself within the girls’ group, a power that is strongly mobilised by certain girls. The ones who can fall, in general, are the hardest on the matter."

Rough contact and impact peak around the age of seven. This is gradually replaced by peer monitoring in the years that follow.
Isabelle Clair: "Adolescence is a very normative age. At middle school, "there's a very tough relationship to what's the right thing to do".
Margot Déage: "Physical violence is much more prevalent in elementary/primary school, then decreases in middle school, and progressively through high school."
