Subject
The topic of the resource
Social hygiene
Description
An account of the resource
This poster urges parents to deal frankly with their children's questions about sex, connecting social hygiene education to their future success.
"If your child asks a question regarding sex, answer it simply, naturally, and in your own language--not book language. Remember, it is just another question to your child--and only a sex question because you know its later significance. Flatter yourself that you are a better teacher than the street, the alley, the gutter. Whether your child will be a stenographer or an engineer, it will probably be a parent. Keep it sexually fit for parenthood! Your city, state and traveling libraries have fine approved books to help you. Your child believes you are the best parent it could have. Meet that inspiring faith."
