Everybody is a sexual being and this includes children living with autism. Starting early and keeping the sex talks simple can help in laying the foundation with your child living with autism for the sex talks in the future. Many times, children who are living with autism do not ask as many questions about where babies come from in the primary age when compared to children who are not diagnosed on the spectrum. It is still important to address these early topics with your child even if they are not asking.

It's a great time to explain what is sex in a medically-accurate way and discuss why this is something that adults do with other adults and not kids. Having this sex talk in the intermediate age can potentially prevent child sexual abuse from happening because you are equipping your child with the knowledge and skills to understand what is considered appropriate and inappropriate behavior.

'It's Time for the Sex Talk for Parents' is a channel designed for modern day parents who know that the sex talks aren't a one-time talk but continuous conversation starting in the toddler years. If you feel unprepared to have talks about sex with your child - subscribe and follow along as I bring you weekly videos designed to help you build your confidence in having the sex talks.

Your religious, cultural, and family values are an important aspect to the sex talks and I want you to include them in your talks with your child after providing medically-accurate and age-appropriate sex education first. Family values are an integral part to the sex talks with your child after you first explain the medically-accurate sexual health information in an age-appropriate way. Then, absolutely, you can include your family values.

What you will find in my videos:
🎓Peer-reviewed research & statistics that support the sex talks
🌱Examples of how I've answered a sex question with my own kids
📒Scripts that can give you the words to say in order to start the conversation and keep it going
🙌Support & Encouragement
🍀Acknowledgement that the sex talks can be very difficult and may feel uncomfortable for some parents
🎬Short videos - because we are all busy parents!
