Parents: You are important!
“Teens may grimace, shuffle, and look bored but research shows that they look to parents for guidance and direction, especially in the area of sexuality. In fact, countless studies confirm that teens view parents as the single most significant influence in developing character and values, and in sexual decision making.” –The Big Talk Book, (Cook, Bruce) 2006
