INFORMATION
FOR PARENTS OR GUARDIANS
Sexuality education starts at home. This is where children learn how to express themselves. They also learn how to:
understand themselves
interact with different people
receive and express affection, love and empathy
Parents serve as important role models. They can play an active role in their child’s sexual education by:
creating a relationship of trust that allows their children to ask the questions that are of concern to them
seeking out the information and support they need by attending information sessions, connecting with schools or other partners in the community including the health care system.
