This Is So Awkward

First Loves and Desires

We get lots of questions about young love – and lust. It’s an enormous topic incorporating everything from first relationships to hook ups; from crushes to being crushed. This episode explores how to open conversations with kids on all of these fronts while managing our own feelings and behavior on the sidelines.

This is so awkward…but it doesn’t have to be. These days, puberty starts earlier, lasts longer, and happens with a cellphone in hand. The most trusted voices on puberty, Dr. Cara Natterson and Vanessa Kroll Bennett, are here to remove cringe from this stage of life – not just for kids going through it but also the adults who care about them. With science, guidance and humor, they cover all the physical, emotional, and social changes that happen between ages 8-18 and beyond.
