If you’re making an important decision about sex or your sexual health, we think it’s a good idea to involve your parents or other trusted adults.
What’s the point? Good question! Here’s why:
- You may get good advice about how to make decisions that will be best for you.
- You may increase the trust they have in you.
- Your openness may show them you’re ready to make responsible decisions.
- They may help you find helpful resources and information.
It’s a fact: most parents want their children to grow up to have healthy sex lives. Parents want their teens to make good decisions. And they want their children to be protected emotionally and physically. They may be ready to start a conversation with you!
