Actually, never! Learning about sex should not occur in one all-or-nothing session. It should be more of an unfolding process, one in which kids learn, over time, what they need to know. Questions should be answered as they arise so that kids' natural curiosity is satisfied as they mature. |
I agree with this too. Most of my relatives thought I was NUTS for talking to my children about it from the time they were 3 or 4 years old, in age appropriate time, and built on it from there.....but it worked for us!!!

Good point....but it also depends on just HOW involved the other parent actually is in the day to day life of the child.
