💨 Abstract

An Irish government-removed advert by the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre (DRCC) showed a granddaughter appearing uncomfortable with a hug and kiss from her grandparents, aiming to educate about consent. The video, part of the We-Consent campaign, sparked controversy. Critics, including Minister for Justice Jim O’Callaghan, found it inappropriate and demeaning. Supporters argued it highlighted the importance of respecting children's boundaries.
