This guide is created with the aim of being a reference for families in terms of information and resources on issues related to the sexual education of their children between 9 and 15 years of age. Specifically, the guide aims to provide information and materials in the field of prevention of inappropriate gender and sexual behaviour and sexual education in values from an early age. The main contents covered are equality, sexual diversity, consensus and consent, self-care, caring for others, love and emotions, stereotypes, and the consumption of pornography.

The different topics of the guide have been elaborated after an exhaustive review of the scientific literature and the participation of different interest groups, thanks to the collaborative work of experts in the field from different European countries.

In today’s society there is still a great deal of ignorance about issues related to sex education, not only about what they involve, but also about when it is most appropriate to start talking about them or how it is best to approach them. This guide will help families to decide on the best approach to sex education for their children.
