Having been a teen myself and now the mother of teens, I'd say that most teenagers find it hard to talk to their parents about anything that might upset them or be the source of an argument. This could be anything from sex, dating, drugs, grades, music, religion, politics...the list goes on. I think it's very important for parents to let their children know that they can come to them to talk about anything and yet still feel safe and secure enough to trust that their parents won't stop loving them.

The first time to many teens have the sex talk with their parents, is when telling them that they are pregnant. Parents, if the teens have a sex queston with their parents, don't assume they are doing it. And teens, if your parents aren't talking to you about sex, don't assume they don't care. Teenage pregnancy is 100% preventable. Start talking. For more information, please visit, stayteen.org or abcfamily.com
