‘How do I balance talking to my child about the pleasure of sex

and also explain that someone can hurt and abuse them?’

The parent adds:

‘‘My own first memories of talks about sex were about abuse and rape.

And never anything about pleasure.

I’ve been trying to undo the damage of that memory for years.’

What an amazing question.

It kind of points to a larger conversation

about how we balance talking to our kids about the good things in life,

with talking to them about the bad things and the dangers of life.

So how can we find a balance

when we’re talking about sex and relationships?

There is so much more to say about this wonderful question!

To hear more about how to find that balance,

and how to give our kids the tools to have fulfilling relationships,
