5.0 out of 5 stars Misleading Title. Check out the book's Table of Contents, September 30, 2002

This review is from: ABC's of the Birds and Bees: For Parents of Toddlers to Teens (Paperback)

Without being preachy, the book makes a case for pre-marital abstinance. Discusses the costs/disadvantages of becoming sexually active as a teen, and encourages kids to think for themselves. Also encourages parents to be ready and to make decisions about dating age etc. before the situation comes up. If you are appalled by books that say "abstinance is best, but since you're going to do it anyways..." or "make sure you're ready" (most kids "in love" think they're ready), this book is for you.

If you are struggling with what to say to your children regarding sex issues, this book will be a lifesaver. It also approaches abstinance in a realistic way that I was very impressed by. I also liked the honest dealings with STDs. This is the best book I have found for parents about "kids and sex".
