Sex Ed for Grown-Ups

Jonny Hunt knows his stuff. For years he's given dynamic sex-education lessons to children and young people. Now, to bring adults up to speed, he has transcribed his down-to-earth approach into this informative, big-hearted, open-minded book. It puts sex and relationships topics into social, emotional and historical perspective with solid research, personal and professional anecdotes, empathy, humour and an insightful angle on how unequally girls and boys experience growing up. As parents, we have a lot to learn before we become more comfortable talking openly with our digital-native kids. Sex Ed for Grown-Ups points us in the right direction Leah Jewett, Outspoken Sex Ed Director In this excellent book, Jonny Hunt explores the myths and challenges of speaking about sex and relationships, and offers much sensible and practical advice around the topic. A practitioner of considerable experience and expertise in working in both primary and secondary settings, Jonny brings a conversational and reassuring tone to tackle all aspects of relationships and sex education, from early conversations with very young children to the more mature areas such as pornography and teen sexting. It will give readers the confidence to engage with these issues in a fact-based and young person-focussed manner, and I would recommend it not only for parents but also teachers of relationships education and the wider children's workforce.
