Parents' information needs and their recommendations for effective sexuality education to children

Canadian parents face different barriers to delivering effective sexuality education, shaped by cultural norms, informational gaps, and discomfort with sensitive topics. To empower parents as primary educators, there is a critical need for co-designed, accessible, and culturally inclusive resources that reflect diverse parenting contexts. Future efforts should explore how policy-level interventions particularly within education systems can support these collaborative efforts among families, schools, and healthcare providers to promote informed, age-appropriate, and inclusive sexual development.
