How to Talk to Your Muslim Child about Sex offers practical suggestions to address building an Islamic understanding of sex and sexuality· Chapter 1 concerns the challenges of raising children in a digital age. The challenges addressed are peer orientation, cultural norms, sex-obsessed culture, gender-specific issues, pornography, dangers of social media, school environment and muslim-specific challengesChapter 2 covers building communication and connection with your children so they come to you for information.
