Re: Bad Things Happen When You Don't Parent Your Child
I dont even know where to start..Ive typed and deleted my opening sentence some 10 times.
In a nutshell..What I think is that parents are waiting too long to talk to their children about S E X...If you wait until they are "old enough" you are missing the boat. You need to get to them before they are too embarrassed to talk to you.
When kids are little they think that you know EVERYTHING...they think you can do ANYTHING...Somewhere along the way they start to realize that you dont know EVERYTHING....Once they reach 12/13/14 they start to think that you know NOTHING....It's not until they get older and mature that they fully understand who their parents are and except their advice on things...
My view is that you need to get to them before they think you know NOTHING...before they think you dont understand...while they still think you are somewhat cool...before you start to embarrass the heck out of them....
I started talking to the girls when they started asking questions. Fortunately for me it was when I first became pregant with Caden...I answer each and everyone of their questiongs blunty with the appropriate terms...Am I doing the right thing? Oh who knows? Im winging it here....Time will only tell....
