Parenting/Family Life/Family Studies

Sexual health education is often combined with teaching students about family life, parenting and other topics such as marriage, divorce and other aspects of our daily lives together. While this can make for more effective teaching about sexual health, the coverage of these topics is beyond the scope of the www.sexualityandu.ca web site. Consequently, for your convenience, we have identified some web sites for you to consider. However, the publishers, sponsors and partners to this web site do not necessarily agree with nor support the perspectives and resources offered through these web sites.
