Bobby Rios last blog post..A Manly Guide to Choosing Your Drink

I’ve always been open and honest with my child about body parts and anatomy. Is that “sex”? Perhaps we need a definition.

When the time comes I plan — as Dad’s House addresses — to “arm” my daughter, too. I have quite a few mom-friends with teenagers, and I’ve heard about the boys (pre-teens!) who try to pressure girls to give them blow jobs. That was terrifying to write — I’ll need to address this when it’s time.

My talk about condoms and pregnancy will also address what it means to speak your mind and go with your gut.

Techniques? I don’t think so.

But at some point, I DO plan to talk about the fact that it’s NOT about meeting his needs. As women, we also need to crack our nuts.

If we want the next generation to be free of the hangups former generations had (and ours, too), it just has to be part of the natural dialog, same with talking about drugs and booze and cigarettes when teaching moments appear.

Now, that doesn’t mean instructing your kid on G-spots and blow jobs. When my teen started to approach puberty and school started sex ed, I left all sorts of books out that mention those things that he could read without me hovering over him. I know he’s looked at them because they’re quite dog-eared!

Now that he’s 15, I have to navigate things carefully or he’ll shut me off — “Mom!!!” — but watching movies or TV together offers many opportunities to talk about sexual things because there’s so much of it in the media!

It isn’t our job to instruct our kids on techniques; it is our job to let our kids know sex is natural and wonderful, sometimes it’s attached to love and sometimes not, that sex has many different meanings to different people, and that each and every time he/she has it, it means a baby — unless you take care to protect against that.

Dating with kids is a challenge but on the upside, you are forced to take it slower, pace yourself, you can’t get way too involved too fast with each other when your priority is your kids. I actually like that. I find the good relationships are built on mutual respect of each others space and boundaries from day 1. Also I can weed out the douchebags pretty quickly by simply telling them I have kids – you are dating ME, you don’t have to love my kids but don’t date me if you can’t handle the fact that they are my priority.

Sex talks? I’m years away from that (yes, time flies) but when it gets here I will make sure they can talk to me about anything and have plenty of condoms available without questioning. Technique? Available tips but only if they ask. There are plenty of reference materials I can point them too to avoid them being mortified.

Later though, when my daughter was older, she playfully said to me, “Mom, you suck!” To which I said, “You wish!”

She never said that to me again! hahaha

That being said, the oldest would rather not know any details of mom’s sex life. If I make a reference to it, she’ll stop me and say, “Mom! Sometimes you need to stop talking!”

The youngest, who is 19, could give a crap. Doesn’t bother her in the least. Just the other night, when I was considering a trip to China, I updated my twitter with just that info. This also updates my facebook. A few minutes later, she wrote on my wall, “A trip to China? What?” When I explained that she wasn’t here to cock block for me she was like, “Oh, okay. Cool.”

I wouldn’t have an issue with teaching them how to give a blow job or talking to them about g spot stimulation if they asked. Then again, they are 19 & 23.
