Under state law, teenagers aren't legally old enough to have sex, but that didn't stop three teens, Luca Wheeler, Charlotte Sedaka, and Jed Siegel from forming a condom company and consent initiative called Condom With a Conversation. This amazing trio sourced a 100% FDA-approved condom and designed a package that includes questions encouraging a couple to make sure both parties are on board and feel positive about their decisions.

At the height of the #MeToo movement, Luca came up with the idea for Condom with a Conversation after a meaningful talk with his grandma and mom. While the three founders are having provocative discussions about sex, they willingly share their own truth- all are virgins. Talking about sex isn't exactly in the comfort zone of most teenagers, but Luca, Charlotte, and Jed are opening up about it and encouraging others to do the same.

To fund their start-up, these young entrepreneurs pitched their friends and family to sell stakes in their company. The condoms have eye-catching packaging with phrases like, YES?, LET'S TALK, and ARE YOU GOOD? making the message crystal clear. They're selling the condoms online and donating 50,000 of them to college campuses across the United States.

All three teens are currently juniors in high school, looking ahead towards college. Jed is interested in baseball and business. Charlotte is a captain on her varsity cheer team, enjoys making films, is a member of the Student Emergency Response Team, and is a Teenline Volunteer. Luca is interested in sports, entrepreneurship, and theatre. I'm so thrilled to welcome our first Gen Z guests to Dear Family.
