Having said that, here are a few resources for moms who have girls who are facing adolescence and the whirlwind of emotions and changes in their bodies. (I\u2019d like to continue this conversation and include several other resources that have been helpful for us, but this one is just for girls entering puberty. If you want more resources on this topic in general, see my Girls Only<\/a> page in my Amazon Storefront.)<\/p>\n<\/div> Each of these podcast episodes on this topic have given me a lot of food for thought, and while not just for girls, I thought they would fit well here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of the links here are Amazon affiliate links.

So THANK YOU!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Quite often, I\u2019ll get a question like this: \u201cHey Sarah, do you have any resources\/books for teaching girls about their changing bodies? Menstruations, deodorant, bras – all the things! Thanks!!\u201d <\/p>\n I figured instead of trying to answer each person individually, it would be good to finally get a blog post up with all the resources in once place. <\/p>\n I grew up in an age, as I\u2019m sure many of you did, where sexuality was very hush hush. We don\u2019t talk about it. And while, I don\u2019t like the idea of chatting about sexuality freely to anyone and everyone, I feel very strongly that it should be an open conversation between parent and child. Sexuality and all that goes along with it, especially in the confines of marriage, is a BEAUTIFUL gift from God, and as parents, we have the responsibility of giving our children a healthy view of their bodies as well as an understanding of the beauty of their femininity and masculinity. Be the safe place for ALL of your children\u2019s uncomfortable questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":537,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[67,65,69,66,68],"tags":[57,63,12,62,59,58,64,14,50,56,8,60,61,55],"class_list":["post-475","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-adolescence","category-family","category-girls-only","category-home","category-puberty","tag-adolescence","tag-beautiful-girlhood","tag-books","tag-books-for-girls","tag-family","tag-girlhood","tag-girls-only","tag-home","tag-motherhood","tag-puberty","tag-resources","tag-teen-girls","tag-teens","tag-womanhood"],"acf":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-asset-9.jpeg?fit=1920%2C1282&ssl=1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=475"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":539,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/475\/revisions\/539"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/537"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=475"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=475"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=475"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/faithfulandflourishing.org\/staging\/9315\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/image-asset-9.jpeg?resize=1024%2C684&ssl=1\")
