What does sex mean?
Where do babies come from?
Why is my body changing?
Sex is never an easy subject for discussion and adults often struggle to find the right words when talking about it with children. This book explores children’s thoughts and feelings on the subject of sex and provides parents and other caring adults with guidance on how to respond to difficult questions.
The author explores some of the most common questions children ask about sex and provides sensitive yet candid answers, phrased in a way that children will be able to understand and relate to. Each chapter is devoted to a particular issue, such as how babies are made, relationships, and the differences between boys and girls. The book recognizes the emotions and reactions of children and family members and includes separate conclusions for adults and children.
This guide offers useful advice for parents and carers and will also be of interest to counsellors and other professionals working with children.
