Aw, aren't you just the sweetest!
Forever sounds like something to bear in mind for her in a couple of years - I hadn't realised just how enduring (in terms of popularity & relevance) Judy Blume's novels are!
Yep - so agree about answering questions on sex, sexuality, etc., as and when they arise, and in ways that are not only age appropriate, but also try to take into account the individual child's circumstances. My own view is that a person who is confident in him/herself as a total being is better able to make choices, keep safe and understand boundaries of all sorts - personal and public, if you see what I mean.
My hope is that we ALL benefit from increased communication, trust and confidence in one another, knowing that no topic is too embarrassing or taboo.
Totally agree with you in every way.0
