Teachers, probation officers, school administrators, counselors, therapists, psychologists, parents, and anyone who truly cares about our youth will be both inspired and motivated to do their part to positively impact the lives of our youth. Real Talk is full of raw honesty and humor! Readers will learn that human kindness is alive and well as they read the many examples of people cheering the author on in spite of her humble beginnings. It is more than appropriate to say that Sheree has truly turned tragedy into triumph with the growing number of youth Real Talk has impacted thus far. In addition to seeing her brothers choose lives of crime, Sheree's previous careers give her special insight into the lives of at-risk youth. Her professional life drew her to dedicate herself to serving children and teens. Later she supervised (with stern understanding) juvenile and adult offenders as a youth parole officer and federal probation officer. "The Program inspired me to make better choices and to do the right thing and that it's not worth living the life that I wanted to live" "The most effective part of the Program was hearing about the speakers past and how much they regret it now" " What I enjoyed about the Program is that people don't get paid for what they are doing at Real Talk" " I learned that everyone is fortunate and you only get one shot at life"

Sex-positive parenting begins before your child starts talking. In No Shame: Real Talk With Your Kids About Sex, Self-Confidence, and Healthy Relationships, New York City Psychiatrist Dr. Lea Lis offers a guide to parents as they seek to help their children through the maze of sexuality and intimate relationships in the 21st century. In clear, straightforward terms, she lays out the groundwork on which parents can help their kids grow up to enjoy positive sexual experiences, and backs up her arguments with data from the most recent surveys and studies of teen sexual behavior. Dr. Lis' unique Mindful Kid practice in New York is well recognized as an approach that emphasizes the mental healthcare of the child, exploring underlying issues to truly help children and their families move through and beyond their concerns to a place of healing and connection. In No Shame, Dr. Lis covers the many issues that may arise as children grow: how to help young children understand personal physical boundaries; the importance of opposite-sex role models in children's lives, what to tell--and not tell--your kids about your own sexual history; and the role of rituals to mark a girl's first period or a boy's passage into manhood. Dr. Lis gives practical pointers on how to help your kids when their relationships run into trouble, how to encourage them to have good relationships with themselves, and how to teach them to flirt and to deal with rejection. No Shame shows how talking to your kids about sex and encouraging them to keep a dialogue open with you will help them to have positive, joy-filled emotional and sexual relationships as they grow up. This may not always be comfortable, but as Dr. Lis shows throughout this book, talking about sex, love and relationships in a knowledgeable way is essential.

When Dr. Robinson asked her freshman psychology students what today's parents need to know about teens and sex, they said parents do not have a realistic view of the world their children live in. A healthy sexual identity requires more than just a list of what not to do. In today's culture of sexual identity confusion, ubiquitous pornography, and #MeToo, teenagers need to know how to protect themselves as well as how to treat others. Talking with Teens about Sexuality will help you understand your teen's world and give you effective strategies in the midst of cultural pressures. Drs. Robinson and Scott provide scientifically reliable and biblically based information about gender fluidity, types of intimacy, online dangers, setting boundaries, and much more. Along the way, the book provides useful conversation starters and insightful guidance. Don't let fear keep you from engaging in vital conversations. Learn how to talk to your teen with knowledge and confidence, guiding them toward a sexually healthy future.
