In this week’s episode we’re having an incredibly important conversation with Vanessa Hamilton on how we discuss sex, sexuality, respect and consent with our children. 

We talk about why it is important to have age appropriate conversations and to start them much earlier than most parents realise. We also chat about how to approach these talks even if you may be feeling uncomfortable about it, and how informing our children about sex, consent and pleasure in an age appropriate way can help them develop healthy relationships later in life with themselves and others. 

**Content warning** In this episode we discuss topics that aren’t appropriate for little ears. We also raise some statistics and conversations around children and abuse that may be upsetting for some people, so please skip this episode if you aren’t feeling up to it. 

Vanessa Hamilton is a renowned sexuality, respect and consent educator. She is the founder of  education business; Talking The Talk Healthy Sexuality Education. She is a highly regarded author, speaker, writer and educator. Vanessa educates, supports and champions, teachers & parents as the main sources of information on this content.  With more than  25 years experience as a sexual health nurse and 18 years as an educator, mother of three teens,  she has had tens of thousands of conversations about sex and sexuality.

In this week’s episode of WTAF we’re talking about the pressures on women to have kids, especially in our age bracket.

We also chat about recent stats published by She’s on the money podcast, about the financial impact having children has on women, and how DINKS (dual income no kids) are on the rise.
