A Resource About Questions about Sex


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     Ask any parent which topic is most difficult to talk to their children
about, and I'll bet that "sex" comes in first.  Yet teenagers rank their
parents as the most important potential source of information about sexuality
and contraception.  With such serious consequences as unplanned pregnancy and
sexually transmitted disease to be considered, providing parents the help they
need to meet with their responsibilities and overcome their own fears can be
an important service.  Organon, a pharmaceutical manufacture that conducts
extensive contraceptive and hormone research, is sponsoring an educational
program that may be just the tool that involved parents are seeking.  It is
called "Time to Talk", and the packet contains a 22 page booklet and special
brochures on "Preventing Pregnancy" and "Answers to Questions About Sex" that
can serve to educate both parents and teenagers.  Most important, it serves to
start the important process of communication that helps prevent problems.  You
may obtain your packet, without charge, by calling the toll free number 1-800
692-TALK (or 1-800-692-8255).  You will also find included a valuable listing
of other important resources where more information can be obtained.
