Family Matters
1 primary work
Book 12
Any discussion about sex between parents and their teenage kids can be extremely tricky and embarrassing for both parties. This book offers parents tips on how to broach the subject and gives advice on a range of problems from the bodily changes at puberty through to coping with relationships, contraception and HIV. And in light of modern society's ever changing attitudes towards sexual behaviour, more controversial issues are addressed such as sexual orientation and STDs. Written in an accessible style, yet based on rigorous scientific expertise, this book is for all parents and carers of teenage kids and professionals working with young people. Written by a respected academic, it includes useful lists of organizations and further reading and should empower parents and carers to develop deeper relationships with their teenage kids.
