Summary: Highly informative, and definately worth reading!
Comment: This book is highly interesting, informative, organized and educational. The title says the book is a guide for parents, however, I found the book to be most rewarding as a Health Education major. Grandparents, aunts, uncles, and family friends should even get their hands on this book... you never know what questions may pop up about sex and relationships! The book's goal is to break the uneasiness, and sometimes embarassing or awkward moments of educating your children about life's issues. It was extremely easy to understand and very real to life. The authors themselves have their own family so they talk from their hearts as "real" parents. They cover everything from initiating converstion to sexual development and sexual orientation. The Mirons took great concern considering the different lifestyles, beliefs, and morals of each individual circumstance and family. The book has two sections called, "Try This" & "Just the Facts." They provide alternative ideas to aid in the education process and important statistics parents may not know. The book has very few faults and has better prepared me for when I start to teach. It has greatly boosted my confidence level and I am sure to hold onto the book both as a reference and as guidance. Take a look for yourself, I promise you that it will not be a waste of time!

Summary: VERY HELPFUL (EVEN IF YOU'RE UNCOMFORTABLE ABOUT THIS)
Comment: No parent in their right mind WANTS to talk with their teen about sex. But no parent who loves their child and wants to keep them safe and responsible can afford not to. Enter the Mirons. They are warm, friendly, and actually know what they're talking about. Best of all, they offer a common-sense approach that makes me feel like I can answer my teen's questions, as well as ask a few of my own.
I especially like the Miron's approach to like, love, and sex and the difference between them. This made lots of sense when considering how a minute can seem like an eternity to a teen, so, of course, a relationship can feel like it will last forever-even if most teen relationships are over in less than a month.
Best of all, this book helps parents keep their feet on the ground while grounding their children in family values. The authors cover the wide range of possibilities, including abstinence. The book's helpful quizes are great for Moms and Dads to try before they begin speaking with their children, if only to make sure they, themselves, are on the same page.
Highly recommended!
