When a young girl experiences her first period, that can be a traumatic event unless her mom has gently discussed the ongoing changes that puberty brings beforehand, in a positive and affirming manner. That was Robin Jones Gunn’s purpose for writing her book, Before Your Tween Daughter Becomes a Woman - to equip moms to have this important conversation with their daughters as early as 8 or 9 years old. Robin stresses that Mom should be the safest person in her daughter’s life - where the conversation about puberty and development can be ongoing. Jenny Coffey echoes this message, explaining that a girl’s self-image and self-esteem will be profoundly impacted by how parents navigate this child’s first exposure to sexuality. Robin and Jenny describe how moms can initiate the “sex talk” conversation with their daughters.
