One of the most common questions parents have is when and how to talk with children about sexuality. Youth and young adults are often scared or uncertain about sexuality. Parents, where have your children learned about sexuality? From school and the media with a worldly perspective or from you with a gospel perspective?

The August 2020 issue of the Ensign magazine has 15 articles to help parents and youth talk about sexual intimacy in a positive and gospel-centered way. President M. Russell Ballard has said, “Be positive about how wonderful and beautiful physical intimacy can be when it happens within the bounds the Lord has set, including temple covenants and commitments of eternal marriage.”

Below are the articles from the Ensign that may be helpful to you:
