No one is perfect. Not even our parents. And that is a great thing to remember when you evaluate the sex education your parents passed onto you. This week, Creed and Crishelle talk with Vauna Davis about how you can take your experience learning (or not) about sex from your parents and move beyond any embarassment or shame you may have inherited.

In this episode:

There is no “one size fits all” for sex education.
Conversations about pornography and sex are awkward for your parents, too.
Your parents did the best they could, and they care for you.
Forgiving your parents frees you to let go of the past and create the open, loving relationships you want.
Sex education empowers and arms children to deal with pornography in a digital age.
