0seeing as how I don't any kids, I don't have to worry about this problem. lol I would like to ask you parents out there, how do you tell your kids about the birds and bees?
I think its an outdated concept (the good old sitdown). Kids tend to know more about sex than their parents by the time they are old enough to do it themselves.
If you're refering to children, you can use broad analogies
They don't seem to mind.Eh, watching sexy MTV videos doesn't equal "knowing more about sex than their parents." I agree that they tend to know a lot more about sex than their parents expect, but if you explore it a bit they tend to have some ridiculous and completely false beliefs they've picked up from friends, like the old "you can't get pregnant the first time" lie.
And the younger they get, the crazier these beliefs tend to be. When my nephew was 10, he was under the impression that women got pregnant from eating certain foods.
