We live in a time when kids of all ages are bom­bard­ed with age-sen­si­tive mate­r­i­al wher­ev­er they turn; sex­ting and bul­ly­ing are on the rise at an increas­ing­ly younger age, and teen moms are cele­bri­fied. What is a con­cerned – and embar­rassed – par­ent to do? With wit, wis­dom, and savvy, Deb­o­rah Roff­man trans­lates her expe­ri­ences gleaned from decades of teach­ing kids and par­ents, and as a mom, into strate­gies to help par­ents nav­i­gate this tricky ter­rain. Talk to Me First is for any par­ent who wants to become and remain the most cred­i­ble and influ­en­tial resource about sex­u­al­i­ty in their chil­dren’s lives.
