Does anyone else find it disturbing that on the front of that book - there is a naked man and woman and then thier cat?
Anyway I dont' ever remember being given the sex talk - my parents had a book similar to the one above and clearly always talked openly to me about sex and stuff. I think its proably better to get the sex talk over with your kids when they are really young before it gets embarrasing on all sides.
Other than that I made my mum buy me forever when I was about 10 and a learnt loads from that and then when we were in the first year we had the whole secret diary of laura palmer obsession - so we learnt more from that - specifically about 3sums etc.
I think from school i learnt about the different methords of contraception and STI's but that was much later. Incidentally do they still teach the rhythum methord in schools - because I seem to recall that being quite heavily promoted...
