Families Talking Together helps provide parents with the skills, resources, and confidence to talk to their youth about making healthy sexual health decisions. The program is designed to promote effective communication skills, build parent-adolescent relationships, help parents develop successful monitoring strategies, and teach adolescents assertiveness and refusal skills.
As a parent, you’re the expert on your child. It is important for you to be involved in all the important aspects of you teen’s life. Even if your teen is getting information about sex from school or friends, what you say to your teen is likely to have the biggest impact on their decision to make good choices about their sexual health.
