from Just Living: Sex Ed

It’s that time. My boys are growing up, they’re realizing things. And I found out last night most of what they know is false. What is not false is only half truths and misinformation. For home schooled kids, I’m surprised about how much they hear from other kids. So we decided it’s time for a little formal sex education…

The boys are different. They’re very vocal about it all. Have no qualms about asking me any questions either. And I try to answer them as honestly as possible. My problem is how much should I tell them? So I found a couple good books written for their age. Specific to boys, which was very hard to find. Most puberty books are geared towards girls. We’ll read the books together, then tackle any questions they may have. This is important because they need to know the facts, and also because I’m tired of them using vulgar terminology to describe things.

Right now, they’re reading and cracking jokes. But they’re reading it, and that’s the important thing.
