Her new book offers a wealth of practical techniques to help parents identify and communicate their own values about sexuality to their children.

What to Expect and How to Prepare: Lively discussions on each s tage of a child's life, filled with relevant information, sparkling anecdotes, and sample conversations. Teachable Moments: How to find and use opportunities throughout a child's life to bring up specific issues of sexuality instead of waiting to have that "big talk." Excerpted from the foreword by the author's 13-year-old daughter: It hasn't always been easy having a mother who is a sexuality educator. Sometimes, it's hard to tell my new friends, their parents, and even my teachers, what she does for a living. But all in all, the positives outweigh the negatives. . . .Here's some of what's been good: I always can come to my mother with any question or problem. . . . She's great for science projects and homework. . . . I know that as I get older, my mom will be there for me and my friends.
