- 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.
