5 Questions for Having The Talk with Your Kids

If you haven’t had The Talk with your kids – it could be time.  Take it from me, the mom of an 11-year-old and a 13-year-old, the topic of sex is bombarding our children in every part of their lives;  it’s in the music they come across, in the commercials that play over and over on TV, and in the conversations they hear when they’re hanging out with other kids. So we shouldn’t fool ourselves into thinking that we can protect our children from outside influences on sex until they’re 15, or even 13.

Instead, the more we dialogue about sex with our children, the more opportunities we will have to guide and influence their thinking – to control the message. This isn’t to say we should bring the topic up all of the time, but we do need to be ready when natural opportunities arise, to make this an ongoing conversation.
