| My 11 year old was "physically" a woman last year. She knew enough about puberty that this would happen to her and she handled(s) it like a pro! BUT,there needs to come the talk about conception,birth control and so on.I told her I needed to talk to her about this, and she said she would rather read about it on her own. She is quite shy about those things. Can anyone recommend a great book that discusses these things & is easy to understand for someone her age? Thanks! |

| They have great books on the subject at any good bookstore. I suggest you go and take a look and pick out one that meets your criteria for details. I bought a good book for my son, and he just told me that it really helped all through is growing up (he is 18 now). Good luck with this! Kathy |

| "It's Perfectly Normal" is supposed to be a pretty good one...Chinaberry has it. When she's older... you can't beat the info in "Our Bodies, Ourselves." melanie |

| Hi Kathy, There's one entitled "A Chicken's Guide to Talking Turkey with your Kids about Sex" by Dr. Kevin Leman & Kathy Flores Bell. If you go on to the Focus on the Family site and check out the resources section you can take a look at the table of contents of this book. Good luck:) Betty |
