Parents will be able to overcome their discomfort, prepare themselves and their children for these sacred conversations, and learn what, when, why, andhow to teach their children about the intricacies of intimacy, and better prepare them for a mutually fulfilling, lasting relationship in marriage.

It’s time to create a whole new generation of young people who go into marriage better prepared for the intimate marital relationship!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT “TEACHING INTIMACY 101”

“I cannot say enough good about this audio cd set. I not only learned things that I will be able to teach my children, but it taught ME so much!! Before listening to this book, I was nervous, anxious, a little embarrassed, and very apprehensive about how and when to teach my kids about sex. I can honestly say that I now feel 1000% confident in my abilities to teach my kids positive, responsible, and healthy understandings about sex and intimacy.”

“Before I got married I asked my mom to give me ‘the talk’ and she wouldn’t. She just said I’d learn everything I’d need to know from my wife. I felt ashamed and embarrassed for asking. I didn’t know enough to get married. I had always felt that sex was just for procreation and that sex for pleasure or enjoyment was dirty or wrong. My wife and I have vowed to teach our children better. Your book has helped us to do so. Thank you.”

“This book is a must for all who have children. To teach our children about sexual matters, Laura Brotherson has developed a sensible approach without the embarrassment most parents have on the topic. My own sex education was zero from my parents and I am learning about sex fulfillment at the ripe old age of 79.”

“This book has empowered me. I have learned what married sex could and should be like. Also, reading about teaching my children about sex made me change. I realized that I wanted my daughters to love sex. How could I tell them it was wonderful if I didn’t believe that myself?”

“As a licensed clinical social worker I can vouch for the desperate need for Laura’s book. She inspires a new approach and a new attitude in effectively teaching our children and youth about sexuality, while maintaining a focus on its sanctity. She helps parents prepare themselves to teach, as well as to know what, how, and when to teach, to better prepare children for intimacy in marriage. I have studied human development and have read many books on sexuality, and have found uniquely valuable information in Laura’s book. Laura’s book is vitally necessary at this time in our nation, indeed in the world, where every aspect of sexuality is so grossly distorted and where the forces against marriage and families grow ever stronger.”

“I have been concerned for some time that we are passing on a bad tradition of our fathers to our children about sex. We say it all in one ‘birds and bees’ talk, if at all, and then say no more! Your information about teaching children about sex is a heralding call to action.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~

“I’m so happy to see that you have addressed preparing children for marriage! I was very concerned about how to teach my children that sex is only for marriage, without making them feel bad about it when they’re finally married. I am so grateful for your book!!”

“With this information, we are now excited instead of scared about teaching our two daughters about sex.”
