Educator's Talk for Parents: What Kids Need to Know About Sex!

It is important to start talking about sexuality with children from a young age. The issues only get more complex as they get older! This powerpoint presentation is for educators to present to parents of children, from birth to adolescence. It stresses that rather than having one big "sex talk" when kids approach adolescence, to take moments where they can introduce information about sex and sexuality into their lives over time.

The presentation comes on CD and has approximately 50 slides, and was developed by a published psychologist who specializes in sexuality and a sex educator certified by AASECT, the American Association of Sex Educators, Counselors, and Therapists.

The presentation is designed for educators to inform parents on a number of issues:
-Why talking about sex to their children is important
-How the landscape of sexuality today is different for them
