"""Educate Empower Kids gives a long overdue boot to the ""birds and the bees"" mindset and arms parents with sound, easy-to-use lesson ideas for teaching healthy sexuality in the home. The 30 Days of Sex Talks is a trusted resource in my own home and one I highly recommend to clients. I especially like how the series fosters a layered approach to this vital topic."" --Jill Manning, Ph.D., LMFT, Therapist, Author of What's the Big Deal with Pornography ""It can be so very difficult for parents to address the various issues around sex, social media and more. The ""30 Days of Sex Talks"" series provides a helpful checklist that parents can readily follow to completely discuss sex and associated issues with their kids. I love the empowerment this series gives to parents by encouraging them to be the primary deliverers of sex talk messaging. The important notion that these are not ""one and done"" conversations are supported in this and the other books in this series. The age-appropriate material helps parents address issues kids face... and have questions about. Thank you Dina Alexander and the rest of the editorial team for producing these oh-so-helpful books for parents!!!!""--Ginger Kadlec, Be a Kids Hero"
