Sex Ed for your Parents!!

Talking with your Teen about Sex

Tuesday, February 28, 2012
PAC Meeting - 7:15 pm
Lord Byng Library - 1st floor (upstairs) (entrance at Byng Arts Door, Crown St.)

Lisa Shopland-Black, Tamara Mckay, Dr. Colleen Kirkham
Staying connected with our teen as he/she navigates the teen years including addressing issues around sexuality and sexual health, may seem challenging to many parents.  The truth is, now - more than ever - it is important to have a solid and open relationship with your teen.

Lisa Shopland-Black, Lord Byng Health and Career Educator, Tamara Mckay, Lord Byng Grade 9 Counsellor, and Dr. Colleen Kirkham, family physician and clinical professor at UBC in the Department of Family Practice, are strong advocates for parents cultivating and maintaining an open dialogue with teens about their sexuality, sexual health, their relationships, issues around internet pornography and choices around intimacy.

Question and answer period to follow.
