Amy Lang, MA, Sex Educator extraordinaire, enthusiastically walks us through the ways we can speak to our kids about sex, what to say and when to say it (it’s much earlier than you think, well it’s much earlier than what I thought!) and oh so much more….you don’t want to miss out on this valuable and important episode full of practical tips and scripts and how-tos delivered in Amy’s candid, easy-going, approachable way.

And there is so much more information and wise advice Amy provides in her books, online and through her amazing advice podcast where you can get your questions answered in bite size advice column style responses. Check it out: Just Say THIS Podcast.

Amy Lang, MA has been a sexual health educator for over 25 years. Surprised by her discomfort with just the idea of talking with her young son about his body, she knew she needed help. Amy did a bunch of research to learn how to talk with kids about bodies and sexuality and realized she could help other parents with this important part of parenting.

In 2006 she started Birds & Bees & Kids. With her lively, engaging, and down-to-earth style she helps parents become comfortable and confident talking with their kids. Amy’s books, online solutions center, and podcast called “Just Say This”, show parents they really can become their kids’ go-to birds and bees source.
