Parenting Spotlight: This Week’s Must-Read for Parents!
Let’s be real — “the talk” doesn’t have to be awkward or overwhelming.

Let’s cut to the chase: The conversation around sex education isn’t just “we need the talk” — it’s about helping kids understand their bodies, feelings, boundaries and relationships. Starting early and keeping it age-appropriate sets a healthy foundation.
What to start with:
■ Use correct body terms and talk about privacy and safe touches when children are young.
■ As they grow, shift toward honest chat about puberty, changes in their body, respect and consent.
■ Let your home be the safe zone for questions, not a lecture room.

Being Their Trusted Guide
Be the calm, approachable guide. Let your child know they can ask anything. These chats don’t need a script — just openness and trust.
The Goal
Parents should set the stage for healthy development by starting honest, ongoing conversations that empower kids to understand their bodies, respect others, and make confident, safe choices.
