Unit 2.2 DB: Children And Sexuality

At what age should parents to begin talking to their children about sexuality?

• What kinds of information should parents provide at various ages?
• Should conversations start at a young age and change in content over time?
• In your discussion, please reflect on Erikson’s stages of psychosocial development to justify your points.

*Remember, when we are thinking about sexuality, we are not necessarily discussing sexual interactions. Sexuality first and foremost is defined as an individual’s sexual feelings or sexual orientation
