Better Than the Birds & Bees:
Sex Ed for Parents and Caregivers
6 Monday evenings, 6:30-8 pm PST
April 13 - May 18, 2026
“Thank you thank you for this little nook of revolution. A common theme I heard echoed in the small groups was how necessary and yet anomalous this gathering space felt.”
If you’re a parent or caregiver and are struggling to figure out how the F to talk to your kids about sex, you’re in the right place.
Welcome. You’re not alone. Like REALLY not alone.
Our kids are growing up, exploring, forming relationships, having experiences, coming to us with lots of questions - or, even more unnervingly, not coming to us with any questions at all.
Many of us feel ill-equipped, uncomfortable, and uncertain about how to stay connected to our kids during this time of rapid growth and exploration. How would we know to do better, when what we ourselves received probably fell somewhere on the spectrum from negligent to terrifying?
Better Than the Birds & Bees is for those of us who want to do better but don’t know where to start, or how.
In this circle, we will discuss how we can honestly and comfortably hold these vital conversations with the kids in our lives about bodies, consent, pleasure, touching oneself and others, sexuality, setting boundaries with kids and adults alike, as well as how we can communicate about our needs and perspectives to the other adults in their lives - and we’ll unpack the reasons we’re uncomfortable talking about it in the first place.
“God what a relief. I just cried and cried after class, and realized how much I’ve stuffed about my own history that’s kept me from even realizing that it can be different for my kids. I’m so thankful to have the space to untangle some of this. History need not repeat itself. Thank you so much for this.”
Registration for BBB is a 2 part process:
1) Fill out the registration form below, AND
2) Send your tuition to @Pamela-Samuelson on Venmo.
I offer a scaled payment structure for BBB with three payment options rather than one fixed price. This structure makes it possible for more people to access these classes with community support, and provides an opportunity for those with more access to resources to support others.
Please choose the option that is correct for you and your circumstances.
Full fee, for those who are easily able to pay a higher tuition: $480
Middle fee: $360
Supported fee, for those who require support in order to attend: $240
By offering the highest amount that is right for you, you are participating in a solid attempt at a balanced and equitable scale of payment that honors my time and work. I’m grateful.
Scholarships are also available upon request - please note that you require further assistance in your registration form.
Because of the confidential nature of the circle, recordings will be sent out to registered participants only.
Zoom link will be provided upon registration.
