Parenting: nobody's perfect

04/22/22 • 39 min

Join Justine and Jenny as they talk about parenting, and specifically about how we can be so worried about 'getting things right' the first time we have a discussion with our child about something important (and tricky). Often, they’re conversations about puberty, sex or consent that feel so weighty because they're so important.

Next Episode

Talking to young people about periods - it's not that difficult once you get started

In this episode, Justine and Jenny chat all things periods. Do you need to have a chat with your young person about menstruation? Are they asking lots of questions and you don't quite feel equipped or confident to answer them? We recommend a good book or two but also conversations are always the best way to show your child you are up for a chat about anything they may be wondering or worried about.
