Kids & Family:Parenting
Talking to our kids about sex and sexuality can be difficult or uncomfortable, and it doesn't end with "The Talk". You aren't broken if you don't know how to talk to your kid about puberty, bodies and sex. Feeling awkward and unsure just means you haven't been shown how to talk or given the right information to talk about. When that conversation moves into consent, sexuality, or gender identity many parents are at a total loss. What if my child tells me they’re LBGTQ? What do I do? How to I traverse this conversation? How do I support them properly? What if we don’t see eye-to-eye on this? Find out how to talk to your teenager about sexuality, especially when it involves gender identity and LGBTQ concerns. Mighty Parenting podcast host Sandy Fowler has a very candid conversation with sexuality expert Sarah Sproule. They cover everything from when to have conversations about sexuality to navigating the conversation when your child’s views differ from your own.
