In this episode, Kate interviews Deb for part 2 of understanding adolescence. They start to explore the sexual exploration of the adolescent experience and key things to explore with your kiddos. Deb talks about the importance of family orientation vs peer orientation and emphasized how we, as the parents, want to be the source of sexual education; emotional, physical, and behavioral.   Together they talked about the journey of maturation and the contradictions between the hook-up culture and the “liberated” mindset of sexuality in today's youth with the science of what happens in the brain when two people are sexually active.  Above all, it is our job as parents to be a trusting, safe, and solid resource for our children in all topics and especially sexuality.  Resources:  Hold On To Your Kids by Gordon Neufeld: https://a.co/d/c2ccFPY Real Talk: https://myhealthed.org/ Talk to Me First: https://a.co/d/0inCGH4 Sex Positive Families: https://sexpositivefamilies.com Sex Talks with Tweens: What to Say & How to Say It by Amy Lang MA: https://a.co/d/5olPpyo Wait, What?

Anytime Kate and Deb share a client's story, they are actually bringing a number of different clients and situations they've seen in their work rather than talking about one particular client. They are never going to reveal names in the interest of protecting a person's anonymity. And on a regular basis, the two sit down with their girls to make sure what they share on this podcast is okay with them.  So please know that anytime you hear specific details, Kate and Deb are really thoughtful and take into consideration how these examples might impact others in their lives. Thank you so much for listening. We are so glad you're here.

Gender identity and sexuality in adolescents is a topic that is coming up big time in homes around the world. People in some areas are scared of this conversation, and in others, the majority of LGBTQ adolescents are met with open hearts and minds. The belief that all girls are born with girl parts and must be attracted to boys, and vice versa is archaic. There has always been a range of gender and sexuality, but in 2022 these topics are on the surface and out in the open. I believe this is another example of how this generation of adolescents is waking us up. As I say in this discussion, I am not an expert, but I am an ally. My intention here is to start a surface-level education for all of us around gender and sexuality. Because here is what I know deep in my bones: when you remove all the external features, gender, status, personality, and sexuality - your kid is a being - equal to you and me. They deserve the love, respect, and safety that all beings deserve. Here's a snapshot of what we cover: > What gender and sexuality really mean > The #1 thing to do when / if your kid comes to you around these topics > A spectrum of terms to know and understand If you're uncomfortable - it's ok. For so many parents, this is very new information and you may have a lot of fear and questions. Simply listen in to learn and open your mind and heart, so we can show up and love our early adolescent kids exactly as they are. This is the greatest gift we can give them. People, places, things mentioned in this episode: > The Every Body Book: The LGBTQ+ Inclusive Guide for Kids about Sex, Gender, Bodies, and Families > Our Sex Safety 101 Guide: How to keep your kid safe from sexual content online > The Gender Unicorn (an illustration explaining gender and sexuality taken from the Trans Student Educational Resource) > Amy's upcoming book Spring of 2022: Sex Talk with Tweens: What to Say and How to Say It > Amy's books and solutions center Additional Sex Education Books & Resources

I know nothing motivates you more than keeping your kid safe and healthy. Yet, so often, caring parents bury their heads in the sand when it comes to educating their kids about sexual wellness, and the effects are devastating. The uncomfortable truth is that no matter how 'good' your kid is, studies show the average age of exposure to pornography is 10 years old. So, it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when. You have no choice but to be proactive. That's why this episode, with Sex Educator, Amy Lang, is so important. Listen in to learn: > How to talk to your kid about sex in ways that keep them smart and feeling secure > Exactly how to keep your kid safe from the damaging effects of pornography > The mindset you must adopt if you want them to have sexual wellness throughout their lives People, places, things mentioned in the episode: > A free guide I developed from this discussion: Sex Safety 101 > Startling statistics: 3% of pornographic sites require proof of age, and 25% do not include adult content warnings, 10-12% of teens believe they are addicted to pornography > Bark - internet and tech use monitoring > Amy's upcoming book Spring of 2022: Sex Talk with Tweens: What to Say and How to Say It > Amy's Books and Solutions center > Amy's Additional Sex Education Books & Resources The one way you can guarantee that your kid will open up to you about important topics like sex is to continue to have a strong relationship through adolescence. But it can sometimes feel overwhelming knowing where to start. I hope you use the tools inside this episode and do what you can to educate yourself and your kid on what it means to be sexually healthy. They deserve this gift, and you deserve this kind of peace of mind. Remember, there are millions of adolescent parents in the world who are struggling.
