Episode 57: Launching Your High Schooler Into Life
/
FOR AUDIO - CLICK IMAGE
Recently a listener wrote in and asked if we would expound upon the idea of giving our high schoolers more freedom in their senior year in order to help them launch better into adult life. We're talking about curfews and chores, girlfriends and youth events, and how we help our high school seniors learn to juggle all of the opportunities that lay before them.

We talk often of sex education for kids and having "the talk", but what about us? What about parents who enter marriage ill-prepared or who don't know how to communicate their sexual needs and desires to each other?
This episode was inspired by a Homeschooling in Real Life listener who wrote to tell us that they didn't communicate beyond "don't do it" to their daughter and she became pregnant at 16, but that the underlying issue was their own lack of communication and sex ed for themselves. Join us and authors Barrett and Jenifer Johnson for a candid discussion on sex ed for parents.
