Parents, teens, and sex - Bruce Cook

Providing a road map for parents to influence and empower teens to choose abstinence, this guide shows parents how to talk confidently about the benefits of abstaining from premarital sex. Tips are included on how parents, mentors, and educators can begin a continuing discussion on the reality of sex, from explaining the emotional and physical risks of sexual activity to ideas for helping teens to recognise the difference between infatuation and true love. Interactive discussion guides are included that facilitate open and honest communication about building self-esteem, establishing boundaries, and learning refusal skills. Interviews with teens who have chosen abstinence are included.
