Description:
Talking to their kids about sex and sexual health can be an awkward and nerve-wracking experience for many parents and guardians. Making these conversations open, supportive, and safe spaces can help decrease a child's risky sexual behavior, make them more likely to practice contraception, and can help foster a trusting relationship with their parent(s) or guardian(s). The team of Cassie Blake, Avery Munn, Samantha Rojas, & Maren Rule created a Birds and the the Bees website to share information about how to talk to a child. One of their priorities was to highlight the importance of starting sexual health education at a young age and gradually introducing more complex information as children grow older. They accomplished this by organizing their site by age groups (3-7, 8-12, 13+). Underlying their website is extensive research gleaned from library databases such as PubMed and Internet sites such as Planned Parenthood and the Trevor Project. In their research essay team members noted that "Planned Parenthood provided general information about how to talk about various sexual health topics, and websites like The Trevor Project gave us a better idea of how to tailor sex education to specific LGBTQ+ groups." The website also offers links to further resources such as state laws regarding sex education in schools.
