Firstly I want to pre-warn you that we discuss some tough topics during this episode, like sex and consent, talking with your kids about death, and bullying. Please be aware, especially if younger ears are listening. Please click play with care.
All parents will face that moment when they have to have some of life’s hard conversations and speaking with your child to prepare them for what comes in life is key. We don’t really know when the right time is but in life we have to put the building blocks in place relationally with our children so that when that time comes, we can have proactive, sensitive and good conversations.

The biggest mistakes parents make when discussing big topics
How to keep the conversation going once you’ve started
When is the right time to talk to kids about sex and consent
How to talk to kids about the mistakes and failures you make
Ways to fess up and repair your relationship with each other
How do you start talking with your kids on these big topics
How kids realize they can help and teach you too
