A Review of "99 Things Parents Wish They Knew Before[R]...Having "THE" Talk"
Bayer, Carey Roth
American Journal of Sexuality Education, v7 n3 p278-281 2012
Numerous books exist on parent-teen communication related to sex, sexuality, and sexual health. However, Chris Fariello and Pierre-Paul Tellier take a new, question-and-answer approach to reaching today's busy parents in their book "99 Things Parents Wish They Knew Before[R]...Having "THE" Talk". The concept behind the book is innovative, but the execution needs improvement. A revised, second edition is needed to address the clinical/colloquial language confusion, definitions of key words and concepts, and copy editing challenges.
