Parents Stay in Charge

This course is not meant to replace parents, as nothing ever could. It’s only meant to handle the awkward, time-consuming basics...

 

…then parents come in after each lesson, and with the help of our Discussion Guide, share the custom family-guidance that only a parent could bring. 

 

Here’s how it works:

 

1) PARENT APPROVAL

Make sure you’re okay with your son taking this course. (And if you generally like it, but want to skip a chapter, that’s okay, too. Just skip it.)

 

2) INDEPENDENT LEARNING

Your son reads one lesson on his own. (This should take about 15 minutes unless he… *cough cough*… “skims it,” hahhaha.)

 

3) QUIZ

Your son takes a fun, easy quiz on his own. (It’s all about re-reading key points. So, it’s not supposed to be hard. If he reads everything closely, he’ll get 100%)

 

4) DISCUSSION GUIDE

You follow up after each lesson -- and with the help of our Discussion Guide – you add your values, answer questions, and reinforce what matters.  

 

IN SUMMARY

You log in, hand your son your device, and he reads a lesson on his own. Then -- after each lesson -- you follow up with The Discussion Guide. That's pretty much it.    

 

I’M BUSY. DO I REALLY HAVE TO DISCUSS AFTER EACH CHAPTER?

Well, no. But a discussion, even if it’s short, helps you build context, share your values, annnnnd – let’s be honest – makes sure they actually read it.

Some parents want more discussion. Some want less. And for others, the discussion’s the entire point of this thing.

 

PACING TIP

You might want to stick to ONE chapter per day. That way, they're taking 15-minute "sips," instead of drinking out of a 3-hour firehose.   

 

AGE STUFF

Younger Kids – They’ll probably benefit from the entire course.

Older Kids – You might consider skipping ahead to “Consent.”

 

But even if a kid – of any age – has already taken Sex Ed…

…this course can fill gaps, serve as a refresher, and tee up your discussion.  

 

REAL TALK

Books. School. This. No one can ever “make” a kid learn, whether it’s “Comedy Sex Ed,” or something else entirely.

So, the value of this course lies in our willingness to work it. If they actually read, and you actually discuss, we’re well on our way. 

 

A QUICK NOTE ON… LET’S JUST CALL IT “SKIMMING”

Not that a kid would EVER consider speed-running this course, hahhaha -- but there’s a very simple, straightforward “Did you read this?” password in each lesson. 

So, if they read each lesson carefully, they’ll absolutely nail this part of the quiz. But if they skim the lesson, and wing the quiz, they’ll have to go back and re-read.

WHAT’S A WIN?

This is a parenting tool. So, a “win” isn’t your son loving a mandatory course, or thinking it’s funny. A “win” is helping you, the parent, have “The Talk.”

So, if they learn, engage, and leave a little more prepared for the world… CONGRATS. WE DID IT.

So, yeah. Here we go. Thanks so much for trusting “Comedy Sex Ed.” It might be awkward at first. But hey, it might be awkward after that, too. Good luck!
