Episode Details

You can't put your head in the sand. If you don't bring up tough issues with your child, they are going to encounter those issues, but from someone else's perspective.

When do you bring up sticky issues with your kids? It's so hard to know when and if you should discuss things like terrorism, abortion, or where babies come from. Kids bring up topics at the most inconvenient times! Plus, life is messy and as much as we would like to keep our children innocent forever, that is just not possible. In this podcast, we share some of our experiences and give some guidelines on how we have handled these issues with our kids. Listen in and let the conversation begin.

Discussion Questions:

• How will we protect our child's innocence?
• What issues are on the horizon for our family?
• What's our response as parents to these issues?
