kids are around do a lot of parents go silent without a way to deal with that
inevitable thing called ‘The Talk.’
Add in the silent arm of technology and chances of your child getting ‘talked’ to from a source other than mom and dad just went up a few bits. As Alonda Thomas sees it, the days of kids learning the facts of life have changed since her childhood.

I didn’t actually have a formal sit down conversation with my parents about sex.

While she supports both parents in having “the talk” with their kids, Thomas took a different approach with “It’s Ok to Wait” as she highlighted the role fathers have in being a guiding force and accessible source force for their daughters.
“I felt like fathers have a very strong influence on their children and that young women would appreciate a male figure telling them, based off of their past experiences, ‘I know how young men are.

I feel like this book will be useful for a lot of single fathers out there who have to share this with their little princesses.
