All throughout the last month here on the blog, on the podcast and even on social media, we got real and honest about the one topic all parents are often terrified to talk to their child about: sex.
What I observed is that this is indeed a topic many of you are passionate and concerned about. Helping your kids navigate today’s choppy cultural waters around sex isn’t easy, and I know many of you are looking for answers. Hopefully, some of what you read helped to encourage you to take a more active approach in this area of your parenting.
This can be an uncomfortable and vulnerable topic for many parents, so I want to thank everyone who entered the conversation, shared this information with your friends and maybe your spouse as well. And if you decided to sit down with your child and finally have “the talk” or even just decided to become more approachable in the area of talking to your child about sex, give yourself a big pat on the back!
