I'm sure it will feel so much different when I'm looking at a 12 year old version of my daughter. Many, many, many years form now.....

...So proud of you and your TALK with Camryn! Yahoo!<br /><br />I get amazed with stories of women (girls) who get pregnant and still really don't know how it happened!<br /><br />We can never assume they know. <br /><br />No such thing as, "Too much information." If they didn't click with the info now... they will next time, or the time after that. Keep up "the talk". It didn't end with this one.<br /><br />I thought having a close mother/daughter relationship was all that mattered at the time. That you would come to me and talk to me about sex and the consequences. So... please don't assume the same with Cami.

She just did it casually, a little at a time. She'd be brushing my hair for school and manage to slide some information in that was age appropriate. Or we'd be fixing lunch together.Or whatever. She managed to tell me all about birth control while still making it clear that this was information she didn't expect me to use for many more years. I hope I was that good with my daughter.Cynthia Meentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775952813637311480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5224100136962162818.post-82957596903529550362012-07-11T20:50:51.809-07:002012-07-11T20:50:51.809-07:00I am not looking forward to The Talk. . .

I still have a year(ish). I hope.<br />P.S.

She didn't seem impressed by my willingness to explain or expand upon things so I left it at if she wants to know more, she can come and ask me. I also bought her a book that talks all about her body, the changes, how to take care of it and about intercourse and babies. She read it several times, asked me questions for clarification and then that was it. I hope she'll come to me when she has questions. She's 14 now and THE TALK happened when she was 12. <br /><br />I think your talk went well:)Bruna from Bees with Honeyhttp://www.beeswithhoney.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5224100136962162818.post-55932178400999847242012-07-11T14:20:17.953-07:002012-07-11T14:20:17.953-07:00you are so brave! I am kinda both dreading and lo...you are so brave! I am kinda both dreading and looking forward to having "the talk" with my 2 girls when the time comes. Thankfully, I have a lot of time yet. DH and I haven't yet determined who will talk to our son - who at almost 8 is the oldest and thus first. Pretty sure "rock, paper, scissors" will decide that one. LOL<br />I think you should do a video parody of "So Wait, Maybe" about this conversation. that would so totally rock!

I believe that knowledge is power and the more she knows about her body and all things related to sex, the less likely she will be to feel pressured into things she may not understand. <br />JennFox in the Cityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12163309708157436213noreply@blogger.com
