Do you remember your parents trying to give you "the talk"? Do you remember giving it to your child(ren)?
Who did you really learn most from? Did you get a lot of missinformation? They come out with new stuff all the time. Do you keep up?

Yes on my pre-teenage days. But it is somehow awkward for me since I really don't like talking to them regards on the so much serious matters. But since I'm a parent now, I do it on different attack so my kids won't feel as awkward as I felt before. Generations nowadays are so different on my generation. The youth today needs to feel that you as a parent is also a friend that they can talk to about anything on any matter. Not like before, parents are authority.

My mom just threw a college-level anatomy book on my bed and told me that my dad was too busy to answer questions. LOL

Still waiting for "the talk" but I think I've figured it out for myself.

No, I figured out that part! -

So you're saying you don't have children because you figured it out and didn't want any? -

Possibly influenced by being born to a teenage mother, I figured out how not to have "an accident" when I was too young & immature to be a parent and I now consider myself too old (& immature) to be a parent.

My total sex education was from my dad...if you have sex with a man that you're not married to then God will send you to hell. From there it was trial & error. I never had children of my own so I never had "the talk" with MY kids. I did have a step daughter that her dad wouldn't talk to about it. I finally told her that if she heard anything that didn't make sense & she needed more reliable info to just ask & I'd tell her the truth. Even if she simply had any questions, I answer them honestly. I found with her that it was less confusing for everybody involved to let her ask the question that she understood & that made it easier for me to respond in a way that she understood. I guess that I did OK because she's now in her 30s & she & hubby have 6 wonderful kids!!!

Sounds like a good idea. And as long as they wanted 6 kids that's great! -

I'm of the opinion that when you've reached the correct number, it's time to make other arrangements or be more careful.
