The S*x Talk Your Kids Deserve (But Most Parents Avoid)

“If I don’t tell them the truth, the world will tell them a lie.”

By Elizabeth Johnston

I remember the first time one of my children asked a question that made my stomach drop. You know the kind. The kind that makes you want to change the subject or redirect with snacks.

But I’ve learned—often the hard way—that awkward doesn’t mean optional. Especially not when it comes to sex.

Let’s be real: the culture isn’t whispering anymore. It’s shouting. From TikTok to textbooks, our children are being discipled—whether we like it or not. And if we’re not speaking first and speaking boldly, we leave them vulnerable to a thousand false teachers.

That’s why I sat down with Nick Liberto, co-creator of The S*x Talk curriculum, for one of the most important podcast episodes I’ve ever released.

Nick is a husband, father, and founder of Live Free, and he’s equipping parents like us to have the talk—but in a way that’s not awkward, fear-based, or too late. His message is this: You don’t need to be a theologian or a therapist to guide your kids through God’s design for sex. You just need to show up.

In this conversation, we cover:

✅ When to start “The Talk”—and why waiting until puberty is too late
✅ Why shame-based silence is just as damaging as the lies of the culture
✅ How to become the trusted voice in your child’s life

“Parents can either prepare their children or repair them later.” – Nick Liberto

If you’ve ever felt unqualified, unsure, or overwhelmed—this episode is for you. You can raise children who are confident in their identity, clear on truth, and courageous in a confused world.

But you have to speak up.
