" PARENTING TIPS: TALKING ABOUT SEX, INTRODUCTION -- PLANNED PARENTHOOD" VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:

The good news is that parents are talking. In fact, 9 out of 10 parents have talked about sex and relationships with their teen. But we need to talk more often and more in depth.
We know this can be a little awkward, so we're here to help. Click on any of these videos to learn more.
