Teens are undergoing changes in their bodies, hormones, and emotions. With this comes strong and
sometimes confusing sexual feelings. Generally the bodies mature more quickly than the judgment. And yet sexuality is a topic in which privacy is critically important and so parents often find it difficult to know what their child is thinking or doing. Come and learn the reality of sexuality in this age group and in our community. Are you sending the right messages? Asking the right questions? What are the risks? STDs? Pregnancy? Sexting? Date rape? Gay and bisexual relations? There will be adequate time for questions and interaction.
