(a.) Go to the following website and check out the information on talking about sex with your kids. How does the advice given on this website compare to how you learned about sex?? How does the way that a person talks about sex to her/his children communicate attitudes about sex?? How does it communicate attitudes about sex in the culture??

I personally wasn't given the birds and bees talk, I feel like I missed out on a typical childhood story. But I know that my dad was just personally to embarrassed to have that talk with me, so I learned about it all in sixth grade. I think it was more awkward learning about sex in school then it would have been with my dad. I personally know what communication style can do to " the dreaded talk". Because my dad never had "the talk" with me, its a well known thing between the two of us that it is a taboo subject that you just don't discuss. I think it is very important for parents to have an open mind when having this discussion with their child. And with the availability of the internet, it could become a project to research unknown facts together.
