“Why is nobody commenting on how brilliant the questions are! The tone of this conversation is beautiful,” posted an Instagram user. “This is awesome. So many parents are uncomfortable having conversations like this with children,” shared another. “This is such a great example of early and clearly continuous sex education. It's just not enough to have "the talk" once at 16 or so,” praised a third. “The most comfortable way to tell your kids about this. Simply use facts. Don't think they won't get it. They will,” expressed a fourth. “Teach them early and teach them right,” wrote a fifth.
