SUMMARY
Heads up, parents—this episode includes anatomically correct terms, so if little ears are around, you might want to pop in your headphones for this one! Talking to kids about their bodies and sex can feel overwhelming—but avoiding the conversation isn’t the answer. We sat down with Mary Flo and Megan from Birds & Bees to talk about how to confidently talk to kids with ADHD about sex, bodies, and boundaries. Using clear, anatomically correct language and having open, ongoing conversations helps kids feel safe and informed. If you’re wondering when or how to start, this episode is a must-listen.
MEET MARY FLO & MEGAN
In 1986, Mary Flo Ridley began presenting a popular parenting seminar in the Dallas area, teaching parents how to talk to their children about sex. Armed with medical research, personal stories, and humor, Mary Flo walks parents through very specific ways to answer their children’s early questions with confidence.
Before diving into the world of sex education, Megan was a middle school teacher. Megan is passionate about equipping and empowering parents to have healthy and age appropriate conversations with their kids about sex.
Together, Mary Flo and Megan form the dynamic duo of the Birds & Bees, fusing expertise, passion, and a touch of humor to revolutionize the way we communicate about sex education.
