Teaching Your Kids About Sex Doesn't Need to Be Awkward, But it Does Need to Happen w/Cath Hakanson

There is no 'right' way to talk about sex with our kids. How we choose to do it is deeply personal, and no one else should ever dictate how we do it. That said, sometimes, hearing how others have done it can be incredibly helpful. The only question is, in a world where it's so easy to be judgmental, where can we actually have those conversations? In this episode, Founder of Sex Ed Rescue, Cath Hakanson shares her suggestions on the matter. Disclaimer: because this episode deals with a sensitive topic, I'd suggest listening to it away from your children.   3 Things You'll Learn in This Episode   When to have 'the talk' with our kidsThe 'birds and the bees' conversation used to happen with 12 to 13 year olds, but should we start having the talk earlier on?
