Ellen Goodman on talking to kids about sex
Ellen Goodman talks about the difficulty of talking to your kids about sex. The column begins with the telling irony that Joy of Sex author Alex Comfort "stirred the international pot of sexual liberation. But he didn't exactly do any home schooling. Sex ed for his son Nick consisted of one awkward 'talk' after the son's headmaster said the boy needed to know about personal hygiene. That was about it."
