Want to know how to talk to your kids about sex? It’s very simple, really, any parent can do it: just tell your kids to wait. That’s it. Apparently that’s all they want to hear.
I love what Noble Savage has to say about a PSA on this topic put out by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Read it here: “Yes, you do need to talk about ‘the parts.’”
Like it? Here’s another Department of Health and Human Services video and a talk sheet for parents that you can find on a governmental web site for parents.
I can’t believe that our taxes are paying for this simplistic drivel.
And to shake things up a bit, here’s an alternative video. I’m not recommending it for Prime Time TV but it is more realistic.
