Key Segments & Discussion Points
1. Teen Sexuality & Parents’ Knowledge Gap
Segment Start: [01:33]
The "Promiscuity Poll": Teens vs. Parents

Parental Disconnect and Denial

Real Teen Voices (Rebecca/Anna Call-ins)
-
A 16-year-old caller (“Rebecca”/Anna) shares her secret sexual relationship, hidden from her close, but ultimately unapproachable, mother ([08:53] onward).
- She uses protection, but doesn't feel comfortable confiding in her mom.
- Jen: "Is it hard to keep that from your mom?"

-
The difficulty of bridging the parent-teen communication gap is repeatedly underscored.
Younger Children & Early Awareness ([15:00])
- A parent recounts discussing "French kissing" and even reports of "heavy petting" among 11-year-olds.

2. Having "The Talk": Parents Planning Conversations

- Tina’s mother, Ann, describes 18 months of terror, fearing for her daughter's life ([35:04]).

- She confirms Atlanta clients have used her services with both “saves” and “busts.” ([49:53])
Notable Quotes

- Melissa: "The line of communication has to be open." ([14:10])
