We off GIRL TALK, a mother/daughter program for girls who are 9-12 years old and their mothers (or another significant woman). The program promotes mother/daughter communication related to issues of growing up and making appropriate choices. Female anatomy and physiology are taught at an age-appropriate level dealing primarily with menstruation. The female menstrual cycle is explained in a positive way as a symphony of seasons in a woman' life. GIRL TALK is followed by GIRL TALK - THE NEXT STEP. This program is for girls and their mothers who have already attended GIRL TALK. The program is offered twice a year. This program reviews material related to girls and adds information about boys' development. Sexual intercourse is explained. Mothers and daughters communicate about appropriate behavior and decision-making.
I am a childbirth educator and am available to do individual childbirth education for those girls who cannot get into a class or who would rather learn on an individual basis. |
