It’s a moment most parents dread, but it’s inevitable for all of us… when your child tells you, for the first time, that have a boyfriend or girlfriend.

And for many of us, this might be much sooner than we’d expect. Not teenagers, but while they’re still in primary school.

When this happens, it’s so important to deal with it head on, and I’m here to tell you exactly how to do this. And, if you find this bucket emptying episode useful, listen out for an episode coming very soon where I dive into the topic of sex education and relationships in far more detail.

So find a comfy seat, pour yourself a cuppa and enjoy the conversation…
