What might happen if we learned to talk with our kids about sexuality and their feelings rather than just trying to prevent or stop dangerous or damaging sexual behaviors? Our guest on this episode is John Fort, our Director of Training. He is the creator of the soon-to-launch Parenting for Purity online course. Discover why the relational approach is far more effective than the control approach.
