Talking about sexual health with your teen is an important part of supporting their wellbeing. While it may feel awkward at times, these conversations help your child make informed, respectful, and safe decisions as they navigate relationships and growing independence.
Sexual development is a natural part of adolescence, and open, ongoing discussions can help reinforce your family’s values, set healthy boundaries, and promote mutual respect. It's also important to ensure these conversations are inclusive of diverse identities, experiences, and orientations so your teen feels seen and supported.
