Talking to Neurodivergent Kids About Sex
Tuesdays 1 – 2:30pm, July 11, 18 & 25
Starts next week! I’m excited to be partnering with my friend and respected sex educator Amy Lang to bring our community a series of 3 classes especially for parents and caregivers of differently wired kids ages nine to twelve.
Amy is on a mission to help every kid grow up to be a whole and healthy adult; she helps parents learn how how to talk to neurodivergent kids about sex i.e. to have open and effective talks about sexuality, love and relationships.
She knows how stressful getting navigating these conversations can be (especially as many of us had a not-so-great example of how to do it and are worried about doing it “right” — right age, stage, words, timing). She also recognizes that there are additional considerations for parents raising neurodivergent kids.
So Amy has tailored this series for our Tilt Parenting community, so you’ll be learning with other parents and caregivers going through similar things as you.
The big goal? You’ll come away with the confidence to be your kids go-to birds and bees source.
