Welcome to Relationship Rehab, news.com.au’s weekly column solving all your romantic problems, no holds barred.
It’s the sex conversation that is most dreaded but sexologist Isiah McKimmie promises it doesn’t need to be “awkward”.My twin daughter and son are both about to turn 10 and I’m dreading having The Talk with them. My sex education was from magazines and whispers from my mates but I know these days parents are expected to get involved and do more – I just find talking about sex so awkward. I have no idea what they already know and if I should take the same approach with both my boy and my girl.
Not to scare you, but I think it’s important for any other parents reading to know that the average age that children first view pornography online is now 11. It often isn’t intentional. Sometimes it’s by accident and sometimes it’s through curiosity.Age-appropriate sex education begins with teaching children correct names for genitalia when they’re learning other words.
Of course, depending on your relationship with each of them, you’ll probably both want to share different things.It’s challenging, but your own nervousness and embarrassment will be noticed by your kids pretty quickly.
