Title: Parents' Sex Talk with Kids: Too Little, Too Late Author: Alice Park Date Published: Monday, Dec. 07, 2009 Why Relevant and Summary: this article discusses parents views on giving the sex talk and how one might go about doing it, and what benefits come from being open with your kids about it. Most parents dont discuss sex topics and their children are already gaining sexual experience without safe background knowledge. How This Influenced My Thinking: i knew sex was always an awkward topic, but when i was young my dad explained to me what it was, and discussed puberty with me and it was normal and not odd. as i grew into adolescence it became wierd to talk to my parents. this just showed me that parents can find it difficult to the point where they ignore the issue and dont bother discussing it.
