A mother who says her baby daughter must consent to cuddles says she's teaching her one-year-old 'necessary skills' for the rest of her life. Brittany Baxter, from Melbourne, Australia, sparked debate after taking to TikTok to slam adults for 'guilt tripping' cuddles out of babies and saying that she's been teaching her own daughter about consent since the day she was born. Appearing on This Morning today, she said that while her family members struggled initially at her 'challenging social norms' by not allowing them unlimited cuddles, they soon began to accept they were 'helping their grandchild'. However viewers branded the idea 'utter rubbish', with several questioning how a newborn baby is able to consent to cuddles.
