Every parent fears having “the talk.” But what many fail to realize is that one conversation isn’t enough. Your kids need so much more! The home must become a place where your family can talk comfortably and honestly about sex and relationships.

If you remain passive on these issues, your kids will likely assimilate into a sexually-charged culture that is severely broken…and their eventual marriages will suffer.
