Help! My Child is Asking Questions About Sex
For parents thinking, "Help! My child is asking questions about sex," Focus on the Family counselor MT Wilson provides a few things they can keep in mind as they discuss "the talk."
MT says it's important to ask yourself, "How far is too far?" when it comes to providing answers about sexuality. Some children may have difficulty hearing a lot of details, depending on their age and stage.
For parents who like to exert a lot of control over your teenager, with negative results, or those who might not feel confident enough to talk about the topic because of sexual brokenness in your past, MT provides some hope. He points you to the Scriptures and encourages you to seek healing for your own past as a way to prepare to discuss tough subjects like sexuality.
Here's a great downloadable resource to help you answer some of your child's questions about sex: https://bit.ly/2Hwr2yG.
