Definately! I won’t be with my kids 24/7…God forbid if someone touched them inappropriately while they’re at school or at a friend/relatives house, I would want them to come to me and tell me. Most kids are sexually abused by someone they know and trust! And I also would want them to know that it was not their fault and they did nothing wrong. Perhaps the # of sexual abuse victims would decrease if desis weren’t so uncomfortable talking about it…I know I’ve heard plenty of stories from desi girls who were touched inappropriately while they were kids…they never told anyone about it b/c they thought they would get in trouble for it.
As for the pregnancy, yes, I would also talk to my kids about it but in terms that are appropriate for their age. My parents never talked to me about these things…but the “world” for me was also different (growing up back home in the 80’s before internet/100’s of TV channels/cell phones etc). Society is different now and I want my kids to hear these things from me instead of getting false information from their peers.
