a little advice for parents on "the talk"

Parents believe me your high school student knows a little bit more than you think they know about the opposite sex. I'm not saying keep them locked away in a castle, to where no one of the opposite sex or of the "same "sex can get them.(Only said because there are homosexual students as my peers , done in respect of those that choose to be.)
For the parent and the teen here is a little article i like to call"the talk"!!
( for my SCARED parents out there):
It can be difficult to talk to your teen sometimes. This is especially true when it comes to uncomfortable subjects such as sex. At this point in their life, though, when teens are feeling the pressure to have sex, you need to counsel them. Don't wait until it is too late. Follow these steps to learn how to counsel(OPENLY TALK TO,) your teen about safe sex.

Instructions

Step1

Counsel your teen at a time when it's convenient for both of you. This time should be free of interruptions and distractions. Make sure that you are both in a decent mood.

Step2

Educate yourself about the newest safe-sex practices. Your teen is not going to want to hear about something from 10 or more years ago. Do your research and print things out to reinforce your discussion when you counsel your teen about safe sex.

Step3

Share your feelings about sex openly and honestly when you counsel him. Let your teen knowthat it is okay to talk about sex without having to share any intimate details.

Step4

Stress to your teen when you counsel him that besides abstinence, condoms are the only way to really have safe sex. Pregnancy is not the only thing he has to worry about. There are many forms of STDs that can be acquired through vaginal, anal and oral sex.

Step5

Inform your teen of where she can go to get condoms without having to answer any questions. Provide her with some if she is sexually active. Give her the phone number of her physician so she can contact that doctor confidentially without having to ask you.

Step6

Step Six - Provide your teen with online educational resources for information on teen health and sexuality such as CoolNurse.com, to help them answer any questions they are still uncomfortable talking about in person.
