This is why we designed the Consent in Gaming form. Having a framework for talking about what works and what won't work for your table is necessary for everyone's safety.
Re: RPG Safety Tools. Some suggest "adults just talk it out at the table." This is demeaning & wrong. No adult is obligated to talk through their trauma - even with their close friends.
"Talking it out" only works until it doesn't, and when it does fail it can go really badly.
