How can I tell my Mom I'm ready for the "talk"?

ok i never got it either i learned off of other students and reading teen mags all the ins and outs all my mum said when i started my period was “ keep away from boys “ lol just ask her about things it may be embarrasing but its better then asking other students as they may think ur stupid lol gd luck chik xx

Torimate,she needs to have the talk with her mom. If she doesn’t then she won’t know anything about it. How do you expect her to find out about sex? On the streets? i think she needs to just flat out ask her mom to give her some information. My mom had the talk with me when I was 12. And even then, she should’ve already done it.

why would anyone want the talk.its is most probably the cringiest experience a teenager can go through. consider yourself lucky that your not getting it.

I Never Got ‘The Talk’ My Mum Was Sneaky. She Borrowed A Book On Sex Pretending Not To Know What It Was About & Gave It To Me & Said ‘Read This. I Borrowed It For You Little Sister (Who Wouldn’t Have Even Been Ten At The Time) Do You Think It’s Suitable?’

(Of Course She Could Really Have Not Known What It Was About -_-‘)

Maybe She Just Doesn’t Know If Your Comfortable Talking About It. I Know I Avoid Discussing That Stuff With My Mother.

The Best Thing To Do Would Simply Talk To Her About It When You Two Are Alone.

Dear deathisbetterthenlifebytwichy, The talk should have come a long time ago. By 13 you should already know the correct names, the reproduction process and consequences. If you don’t know these by now head over to the public library and do some reading. It is more embarrassing for a female to get her period without any prior knowledge then it is for a parent to sit and have the talk. The talk is a parents responsibility but if they do not have it by the childs teenage years then I doubt it will happen. Sue…good luck

i have 2 agree, it made me break a sweat, but u shood probably hav it, as uncomfurtable as it may be!

tell her straight up then.
