ABSTRACT
Sexuality is a life-long process that starts at birth and continues throughout life. As such, families, regardless of the form they take, are the first source of sexuality education (SE). There appears to be a disjuncture between what parents think they provide and the education youth want regarding sexuality. Most parents want to raise their children to be adults who have healthy, satisfying sexual lives, yet many feel they lack the knowledge and skills to do this effectively.
