Too often, parents wear blinders when it comes to the sex lives of their children. They hear the statistics - how 80% of college students have engaged in rough sex or how one in four teens have sent or received a sext - and think, “Not my kid.”

Yes, Your Kid is the reality check parents need about what sex is like today - so they can better educate and support their tweens, teens, and college students.

Combining insights from cutting-edge research, conversations with real students, and on-the-ground legal experience, Yes, Your Kid provides:
An overview of key topics in sexuality, from communication and consent to pornography and rough sex, describing how things have changed.
Real-world legal stories illustrating today’s consensual sex pitfalls - and how to help your child avoid them.
Age-appropriate tools to not only talk to tweens, teens, and college-aged kids about sex and consent, but also build a healthy foundation with younger children.
Concrete advice parents can share directly with their children so that - if and when their children become sexually active with partners - they are more likely to have safer, consensual sex.
Plus, a chapter focused on the consent, communication, and relationship education needs of young people on the autism spectrum.

Authoritative, supportive, sex-positive, and facts-forward, Yes, Your Kid provides parents with the frank, accurate information they and their children need to safely navigate today’s sexual landscape.
