A member asked:

What should parents do to help their child avoid pregnancy or hiv infection ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

TALK: The most important thing we can do is talk with our children, particularly about sex and our beliefs and concerns. Be real and allow input and questions from your children. It takes more than one talk. It is constant, take advantage of those special moments, they are valuable.
