EP.09 - Angela Hick Registered Clinical Social Worker - "What Would Your Mother Think?"
Join us as we sit down again with Registered Clinical Social Worker, Angela Hick - @angelahick. This episode although parent focused has intellectual morsels for all of us sexual beings. We talk about how sexual boundaries are set at a young age as well the impact of the internet today. We dive into the root of sexual capacities and how to build strong education for children and how to teach them as parents. Angela shares insight into parenting to prepare versus parenting to protect with definitions and foundations. We talk about the serious to the funny, from setting a guide to a healthy sexual life, to boys rigid blanket issues.
We also touch on how many cultures have strong sexual taboos that can have a negative impact when going into adulthood and engaging in sexual intimacy. We engage into the many ways children can be taught the meaning of consent at an early age as well as teaching them about their anatomy and how that helps them prepare for healthy adulthood relationships. Caregivers or humans we invite you to a healthy sex talk. We encourage all to build boundaries and learn about a healthy positive relationship with sex.
