Beyond The Birds And Bees

“The Talk.”

It’s one of the most daunting prospects parents face. Communicating the richness of Catholic teaching on sexuality in a faithful and effective way can be an overwhelming responsibility. But does it have to be so?

In this thoroughly revised re-release of Beyond the Birds and the Bees, popular marriage and family counselor Gregory Popcak empowers you with the tools needed to move well beyond “The Talk” by offering a comprehensive guide to raising sexually whole and holy children. Using the riches of Blessed John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, Dr. Popcak helps you safely navigate your children from infancy through the teenage years and beyond.

Part One of Beyond the Birds and the Bees cultivates your personal understanding of the Catholic vision of sexuality, allowing it to color your relationships, conversations, and interactions with your children.

Part Two provides practical step-by-step guides, including goals and concerns, for each stage of childhood – from infant to teenager.

A bonus chapter offers help with the more sensitive topics.
