Frequently Asked Questions
Got questions? We're here to help.
What age range is this for?
Parents of teens (ages 8–18) will benefit most, but the principles and content are helpful for parenting any child, given that all parents will have to have these conversations at some point!
Do I need to be Catholic?
While this course will incorporate some elements specific to Catholic theology, much of the content will apply to non-Catholic Christians. If you aren't Catholic, take the elements that are helpful and incorporate your own tradition as needed to supplement what I offer.
How long is the course?
This course includes 12 video modules (~5-12 minutes each) plus printable resources that supplement the content in the book and video series. You can spread the content out over the course of weeks or months. Go at your own pace.
What if I’ve already messed up these talks?
If you feel as if you've already messed up, you're in good company with many! Most of us didn't have the models we needed to do this well. The course actually addresses this exact question and gives a path for moving forward, even if you feel as if you're behind or have made mistakes in the past.
Where can I purchase the book that goes along with this video series?
Talking With Your Teen About Sex: A Practical Guide For Catholics is available through Ave Maria Press or anywhere books are sold.
Is there a refund policy?
The course is non-refundable. If you have any concerns about the series or feedback you want to offer, don't hesitate to email [email protected].
