They may not even bring it up to you, but if they do...then you should still listen. Don't interject when they are talking....just be like a sponge and soak up everything they tell you even if it is old fashion. Just listen!

DoubleM agony auntYou should still listen to everything that either of your parents have to say, and think less about telling them that "you already know it all." That would do nobody any service at all and anyway, you do not "know it all." I'm 60-years-old, very experienced and with an extremely high IQ, and I still don't "know it all" either. Go figure.

MissKin agony auntI think it would do you good to have the talk with your parents. It makes the subject more open, means you have someone to talk to if anything goes wrong/happens and you can double check that everything you've 'researched' is correct and you've got all the information you could ever need!

Make sure you know about contraception mainly - that's the only thing parents really tend to talk to girls about in detail. And this is always handy so your parents know you know about it and don't worry about you.

They may also believe ur not ready for sex and therefore think they don't have to talk to you about it.

Don't get embarassed if they do. Just be open and mature and let them see that you're old enough to deal with talking about sex. even if it is with your parents.

This is a longer answer than you really needed but i hope it helps.

Miss Kipling agony auntThe chances are that your parents may not even bring up the subject as they may assume that you are already aware of it, especialy as you are 14. However if the moment should come, simply explain that you have already had some sex education in school and have also learnt things through what other people had said.
