19 FEB. 2024 · Parents make sure your children listen to this! And young people, this is MUST listen episode that will help you to stay on the right side of our laws! We are not taught the basics of the laws of our land anywhere! Not even in school, unless it is electively learnt. With over 18million young people in the UK aged between 10 and 18, and statistically with the number of young adults in Britain is set to continue to rise sharply, there is so much that young, fresh, ambitious and energetic youngsters, as well as their parents, carers and friends, should know about on this topic; to understand it, and to keep themselves safe from breaking the law. There are many myths on this subject, and surprisingly the UK legal age that you can have sex, engage sexually with another person using online Apps, drink alcohol and fly the nest, is NOT common knowledge! Furthermore, very few know which acts can be a criminal offence, and this has resulted in a sharp rise in young people getting on the wrong side of our laws! There are serious repercussions for a young person, if a complaint is made about them to the Police, if they have had sex with an underage person, or drinking alcohol where they’re not supposed to, and in many more circumstances. In this episode award winning legal professional Carla Riozzi, and our host Hatti Suvari discuss all you NEED to know on all of this and much more! As always, in Plain and Simple English.
