How many of you in your 30s can say your parent(s) sat you down and had “the bird & the bees talk” with you? If you are one of the lucky few, I applaud your parents.
Not many parents know how to or feel comfortable talking to their kids about sex. They don’t know the right age to have the talk or they assume if they have the talk with you, you will want to start having sex. It is not an easy subject to address or you can never really know the right time to have it. But IT NEEDS TO BE HAD! With everything going on in the streets today it is better you teach your kids then they learn from their friends or strangers.
In the black community we just get told you better not bring no baby home or you are going to be an adult your childhood will be over. Or when we come home with kids at young ages most parents try to play the baby off as theirs. This is teaching us nothing but how to lie and be deceitful.
I applaud those who were teenage parents and made it work. To go against all odds and make it work is no easy task. Most of the time you and your child grew up together. Some families stick together and help raise the child as a village sadly that’s being seen less & less nowadays.
It’s important to have the talk and be honest with your child/children. Technology is teaching them nowadays and it is not always the correct or best information. It will be uncomfortable but if you don’t have the talk the end result could be worst.
Remember I LOVE YOU!!!
