RE: If You Want to Protect Your Kid, HAVE THE SEX TALK

in #life7 years ago

Wow! If there was an award for the most thought out reply, you win! I do believe in being honest and real with them, BUT I also want to discuss the emotional and spiritual side of sex. It isnt just physical and it carries potential consequences in all forms. Thanks for commenting @thatadvocate!

Well yeah, definitely you should tell them who most people do it with (or should) and why.
Only issue with going that deep is, well, it kind of has to come out or they'll imply it that sex feels good, and that would be something that would encourage them to engage in it or want to try it, which I doubt would be and issue with the other things they would now know, but hey, it's still there.

No matter what I'd say it definitely still protects them more, including that too, as it makes them informed, and if they did decide to ask someone (unlikely) and that person accepted (unlikely) they'd still be able to handle their self in the situation and likely not become a mess from it.
Ideal, maybe not, but far better than if they knew nothing and were taken advantage of and truly abused as a result.
