Things get a little more awkward than usual today, when we talk to Cory Silverberg, a Canadian sexuality educator and author. Cory is the author of What Makes a Baby, Sex Is a Funny Word, and You Know, Sex. Cory talks to us about teaching consent to our children and families, what happens when four year olds don't like your book, and how to talk about all the different ways that families come about.

This episode does contain anatomically correct language, discussions of transgender and queer folks, and references to the dangers of sexual abuse. This episode contains lots of great jumping off points for further conversation, but we want folks to be aware of where all we're headed in this conversation.

More information about Cory and their work can be found at www.corysilverberg.com and their books can be found at retailers all over North America.
