Parents and Caring Adults
There’s no better sex education resource for young people than a supportive parent or the caring adults in their life. But here’s the good news: You don’t need to be an expert! When questions arise, you mostly need to listen, stay open, and help them find resources about the topics they bring up.
PPMM Education asked parents and caring adults: What topics would you like to learn more about to help you talk to youth about sexual health? And this guide covers the top topics they listed!
Whether the kids in your life are middle schoolers, teens, or young adults, you can use the following tips and resources to navigate conversations to help the youth build skills to be healthy, safe, and self-advocating.
