Timing Is Optional, Awkwardness Is Not

What’s the best age to talk to your kids about sex?

Radical take:

It actually doesn’t matter. 

If you’re not ready, then you won’t do it nor make time for it. 

Even when people know the “right” age to talk about certain topics with their kids, they still hold back because they’re not ready. 

How do you become ready?

It starts with addressing any lingering issues or emotions you might have about sexuality. Whether it's embarrassment, shame, guilt, uncertainty, or plain awkwardness, resolving these feelings is the first step. Once you're comfortable with the topic, the rest becomes much easier.

This readiness factor extends to your conversations with your partner, too. Open and honest discussions about your feelings can greatly enhance your connection.
