Talking to Kids About Sex
About this episode
Erica and Milah discuss navigating conversations about sex, consent, and puberty with their daughters as they enter middle school.
Welcome back! Erica and Milah are officially entering a new era of motherhood: raising daughters through middle school, puberty, changing bodies, and conversations about sex and consent. As their girls grow up, the Good Moms unpack what it means to parent differently than they were parented. They talk about body autonomy, boundaries, pleasure, sexual shame, safety, and how to have honest, age-appropriate conversations with your kids even when you don't have all the answers yourself. In this episode, you can expect to hear: • Milah’s emotional first middle-school drop-off • Navigating puberty while co-parenting • Why you might need to be your kid’s first “gentle bully” • Teaching kids about consent, boundaries, and unsafe behavior • Why “stranger danger” doesn't tell kids the whole story • Raising girls without shame around their bodies and sexuality • Talking about crushes, pleasure, and self-exploration • Breaking generational patterns around sex and womanhood • Why boy moms need to be having these conversations too • Back-to-school baby daddy drama, middle-school memories, and gray pubes…
