Is it advisable to do that ? What should be the parents' approach? What should be the conversations be around sex?   No parent wants to think about the fact that the baby who used to depend on them for everything is now growing into a young adult, but there's no stopping mother nature.  Given that the legal age of consent in South Africa is 16 years for both boys and girls, and that it is not legally criminal for children between the ages of 12 and 16 to have sex within their age group, it's best not to prolong educating your tween/teen about sex.  Guest: Tessa Pule, behavioural specialist, and founder of Youth Nations.
