Identification and understanding of the emerging sexual trends among our youth can leave a family feeling frustrated, frightened, confused, and defeated. We have a new sexual movement occurring in our culture. We are witnessing first hand a dramatic cultural shift in regards to sex and sexual relationships. It is important that we become educated about it. The sexual trends that are emerging in our society are alarming to say the least. However, perhaps what is even more alarming is the fact that most adults are unaware that they exist. What Every Parent Needs to Know About Emerging Sexual Trends Among our Youth, by Dr. Tonja H. Krautter, focuses on what the trends are and why we are seeing them emerge in our society. In addition, the book focuses on how to avoid the emergence of these trends and how to deal with them if a child is currently engaging in sexual activity. The book will provide answers to the many commonly asked questions by parents regarding what to do if their minor child is thinking about sex or is already engaging in sexual activity. It is my hope that upon completion of the book, every reader will have a more thorough understanding of the complexities of our culture’s emerging sexual trends and therefore, be better equipped to work toward prevention and intervention. By acknowledging the dramatic shift that we are witnessing, we as a society will be afforded the opportunity to help our children in both positive and healthy ways not only in regards to sex, but in all areas of their lives.

Отрывок из книги
There is no denying that society changes on a continual basis throughout time.
Today, however, girls no longer look to their parents for permission to spend time with boys and boys rarely ask for it. Both boys and girls take it upon themselves to make decisions about whom they will spend time with and what sexual activities they will engage in. Perhaps this would not be viewed as negative if it was not happening at such a young age.

The new sexual trends that are emerging in our society are alarming, to say the least. However, perhaps what is even more alarming is the fact that most adults are unaware that they exist. This book was written specifically to educate parents. Identification of the trends and why we are seeing them in our society will be covered in the next two chapters of this book. How to avoid these trends and how to deal with them will be covered in chapters 3 and 4. These two chapters are particularly important because they will provide answers to many questions commonly asked by parents about what to do if their minor child engages in sexual activity.
