From celebrity M.D. Dr. Drew Pinsky and his daughter Paulina Pinsky comes an entertaining and comprehensive guide to sex, relationships, and consent in today’s #MeToo era. Perfect for teens, parents, and educators to facilitate open and positive conversations around the tricky topic of consent.

When it comes to sex, relationships, and consent, establishing boundaries and figuring out who you are and what you want is never simple—especially as a teenager. What’s the line between a friendship and a romantic partner? How can you learn to trust your body's signals? And what if you’re not quite sure what your sexuality is?

In this book, renowned celebrity M.D. Dr. Drew and his daughter Paulina Pinsky take on those awkward, incredibly important questions teens today are asking themselves and parents wish they had a better grasp on.

Filled with tangible and accessible resources, and featuring humorous and raw personal anecdotes, this is the perfect guide for teens, parents, and educators to go beyond “the talk” and dive into honest and meaningful conversations about sex, relationships, and consent.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

So helpful for parents!

As a parent of young children, I’m trying to get a feel for how to talk to my kids openly about sex and relationships. I don’t want to be a young Grandma, and worry about teaching them consent. Thank you very much for this book!

Should be required reading

This book should be in the hands of kids from 12 to young adults in their 20s and their parents. Im in my late 40s and I learned a lot in this book. I wish it had been around when I was a teen. Dr Drew and Paulina are handing you a roadmap to help you keep your teens safe, to help them keep themselves safe, and to help them be a safe person for others. I think this is the best tool parents and teens have been given in a very long time. It’s definitely a must read.

Great father/daughter performance

Great information for anyone whether you have children or not. Dr Drew and his daughter Paulina Pinsky do a fine job reading. He reads to the adult audience and she addresses the younger people that may be listening. You will think about the relationships in your life and hopefully gain some tools to improve upon them.
