Talking to Your Kids About Sex - Part 1 Thinking Faith: The Catholic Podcast

    • Christianity

Deacon Eric and Dr. Brett get together this week to discuss one of life's trickiest topics; talking to our kids about sex. When do you start? How do you broach the subject? What do you say? It could be an example to follow or a cautionary tale, but it's sure to be interesting!
Show Snippet: So one of the things that we do in our family, and this especially because we have a range of ages and we're having conversations where there's people who are five are in the room, and people who are in the room. We've developed a set of coded language. It works really well because it's ambiguous enough that it says something true that a five-year-old can understand, but a fifteen-year-old who knows a little more about the mechanics of things can also get what it is that you're saying.
