In this second edition, the author continues to share the latest information about sexual health. This comprehensive edition explores new trends, addresses common myths, and has a new chapter on communicating your family values. The author gently dispels misconceptions and unhealthy beliefs about sex by telling even more humorous stories from over 20 years of experience working with children, families, teachers, and other professionals. She touches on the physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual aspects of sexuality. Using the notion of sexual health education as a “stretchable thing,” she helps us stretch our own knowledge so that we might help children stretch theirs as they grow. Meg assists the readers to educate our children about abuse, unplanned pregnancy, and sexually transmitted diseases, including HIV/AIDS. She gives us age-appropriate information, guidelines on how to talk with children at various stages of their development, and examples on how to answer tough questions. The book is full of wonderful advice, frank talk, and more humorous anecdotes.
