How to Talk to Your Kids About Sex, Drugs and Reproduction with Dr. Dolly

Beginning to speak to your children about all things adolescence  begins much younger than you might imagine. Many children enter puberty as early as 8. There doesn't necessarily need to be a formal "talk" but rather many conversations which build over time.  My guest for this episode is Dr. Dolly, a family medicine physician, who now helps parents and children broach all the uncomfortable discussions that might leave us wondering just what to say and when.  Episode Highlights:   Initial reactions and stigmas around The Talk Top tips for puberty The importance of teaching consent The topics of sexuality The impact of pornography, what we can do to protect them   Connect with Dr. Dolly Klock: Website | Adolessons | Dolly Klock, MD Instagram | Dolly Klock, MD | @adolessonsla   How can we “shame proof” our parenting?
