How young should we start talking to our kids about sexual health?
Do I need to have conversations if my kid doesn’t ask questions? How do I even start?
What if a child asks a question and a parent has no idea what to say?
How do we answer personal questions? Do we have to tell the truth lol?
I'm so excited to have my guest today answer all these questions and more!
