SexEdu Resources

From a parent
I have two teenage children - 17 and 19, to be precise.

So I thought this topic was of particular interest.

If anyone here is offended by the content, my apologies in advance. But I do
think this subject matter is very pertinent for all parents.

Yesterday, we watched movie “I am” with our daughter who 13yrs old. The movie has various topics which you may not be able to talk otherwise – the movie gives kick start to initiate the conversation in the house about child abuse, sperm donation of unknown man, gay, abuse of gay…………..
Today we talked about child abuse in house. We took the example of

1. Bribe “if someone tells you I will give you chocolate, you do not tell your mummy”
2. Threat – Do not tell your mummy, else I will tell him that you eat chocolate, or your mummy will scold you
3. You liking – You may like the act, You may also like to touch others body parts – what is expected behaviour for your body

At the end we talked about “so when you want to share, you may not be able to share all with us (ma-pa), who else you would like to share”
Initially kids were “only you, no one else”.
I insisted “its good to have a friend, other adults with whom you can talk and share”
Both the kids choose the aunty in their school, reason "comfortable, they understand".
