How do you teach kids about sexual purity without being weird?
My 12 year old is getting to that age and I want to have the talk but I want to frame it biblically without making it awkward or shaming. My parents never talked to me about this stuff and I turned out okay I guess but I don't want my kids fumbling around in the dark. Anyone have resources or advice for how to approach this conversation in a way that honors God but also doesn't traumatize my kid?
We framed it around respect - respect for their future spouse, respect for their body, respect for God's design. Made it less awkward to focus on the bigger picture than just the mechanics. My son actually asked good questions after that.
