    Important topics

    Lots of useful tips in the panel. Mindful parenting is so important. I definitely want my children to understand the importance of consent and not make sex a taboo topic. I would rather they come to me and talk about it then to get information from their peers which may not be right.

    I was more motivated after this panel to practice more open communication with my child and also to educate my husband about it. We do have a general understanding of parenting but honestly there are still things that we struggle with because we are so used to the old methods of doing things, things that our parents passed down. I feel encouraged that it's ok to start a different style of parenting even if it's harder but in the long run, it will be better. I am excited to evolve as a parent, as a human.

    It is truly a touchy topic especially when we are not brought up equipped with the knowledge nor openness to talk about sex. Well, at least my parents never had the conversation with me and I had to find out on my own which was very confusing for me. I'm grateful that there are workshops like this so the future generations can be more equipped when facing topics around sex and not shy away from it.
