Teaching our children about sexual purity and all the complicated questions surrounding this topic is extremely important for parents to do with their children.
Because of the Internet, graphic images in the media, and their "know-it-all" friends, our children can potentially be exposed to sexually explicit material and pressures.
They have questions, and as their parent, your responsibility is to clear up the mixed messages and lead them to a healthy, value-centered view of sexuality.
Sure, conversations with your kids about sex and their changing bodies can be uncomfortable, but they don't have to be!
Expert Jim Burns gives advice on how and when to talk with your children, and he provides answers to the most difficult questions your kids and teens might ask, like:
- How far is too far?
- If you do everything BUT the act of sex, are you still a virgin?
- Is self-stimulation wrong?
- I think I'm addicted to porn. What can I do to get help?
- Is a boy/girl sleepover okay if there's a chaperone?
