Thank you for writing this message and the Smart things to say about this topic! Your guides are simply the best. Thank you for being a light in our journey as we raise our girls. 

This resource is soooo good! Printing out now to share with my husband.

THANK YOU for the information on relational aggression and "Smart Things to do" resources. There are so many helpful tips I can use with my daughter moving forward. Thank you!

I want to thank you for these e-mails. I print out the smart things to say every time you send them and have a folder with all of them and refer to them as needed. I so appreciate having your wisdom and guidance as an integral part of my toolkit.

Your Smart Things to Say has and continues to be a godsend...I often recommend parents to your site.

OMG you’re always so up to date, your resources are amazing! A friend of mine just brought this topic up…we were both shocked about this new trend. I told her I would write to you to suggest this topic and look! You’ve already done it. 

Empowered Kids helps you to:

  • Navigate sensitive topics with smart things to know, do and say in your back pocket
  • Answer even the toughest questions with ease
  • Learn from my 25+ years of experience teaching kids (and from my mistakes as a step-parent 😬)

A personal message...

Hi, I’m Saleema Noon, a sexual health educator with over 25 years of experience teaching in schools. I know how challenging conversations with our kids about important stuff can be, because no amount of teaching could have prepared me for my biggest challenge yet: being a stepmom to two girls. Because of my work, I figured I'd nail it with Afton and Kate. But it was tougher than I expected to engage them. So I totally get it if you feel overwhelmed by questions you have no clue how to answer, or feel like your message doesn’t always land.

I want to be your backup as you navigate often clunky conversations with your kid about bodies, puberty, social media, safety, sex...and everything in between.

One way I can do this is to offer you my very best insight on smart things to know, do and say when talking about even the most awkward of topics. When you subscribe to my Empowered Kids newsletter, you'll get a new Smart Things to Say resource straight to your inbox every other Saturday morning. Join my community of proactive parents like you and let's start talking!
