The "right time" means something different for every kid and every parent. As a general rule of thumb, consider that your child should probably know how to practice safe, consensual sex by the time that he or she winds up in a sexual situation. If your child is approaching his or her teen years, then hormones are coming, and the time is nigh. In this digital age, more children are learning about sex from the Internet. If your child gets curious, then they may do a lot of exploratory searching. Use your knowledge to act as a guiding figure. Your child may know more than you think. Many schools incorporate some form of sexual education into their curriculum. Try using this as a reason to engage with your kids about the realities of sex. Set yourself up as a resource, and offer to answer any questions that your children might have. Sex can be an embarrassing topic for adults to discusslet alone children or teenagers! If the topic comes up naturally, then take the opportunity to discuss it. Otherwise: plan out what you are going to say, and try to build upon what your child already knows. Keep an open mind. Be respectful of boundaries. If your son or daughter doesn't want to talk about the "birds and the bees," then don't force the conversation. There are various books, websites, and other resources available that make it easier for kids and teenagers to learn about healthy sex. If your child is younger than 10-12, consider going through these resources one-on-one. If you are dealing with a teenager, then you can likely just pass along the information and let your teen explore on his/her own time. What Makes A Baby by Cory Silverberg is a children's book for parents looking to explain to young children how babies are conceived and born. The website BishUK provides a range of topics for parents and teens. The site covers not only the physical aspects of sex, but its emotional impact. MTV, as an offshoot of their Teen Mom series, runs the website [mysexlife.org mysexlife.org]. The site helps teenagers understand sex and sexuality, and it can help teach young adults how to make safe decisions regarding their bodies. Speakeasy, a Family Planning Association, features online guides to help parents talk to kids about sex and reproduction. There are guides available for a variety of ages.

One-sentence summary -- Know when it's time to talk to your child about sex. Bring it up gently. Use outside resources.

at an organization where you can do relevant tasks. Identify organizations where you will be able to use skills you already have and develop new ones that will apply to the type of job you want. Approach finding volunteer work the same way you would look for an internship or a paid job. For example, if you want to work as a community manager, then volunteer at an organization that needs help managing their social media. This will open the pathway to a potential paid job within that organization, or at another organization doing the type of work you are interested in. Integrate with the organization to learn everything about it once you begin volunteering. Read up on the organization, listen to other staff members, and attend meetings to absorb all the information. Treat volunteering just as you would a paid job at any other company. You want to become an integral part of the organization in order to advance your career. Just because you are not getting paid doesn't mean you can show up less often or work less. Commit to the job you are volunteering for, show up on time, and work hard to demonstrate your value to the organization. Always let your supervisors know if you will not be able to come to work one day. Make sure you have a valid reason not to show up. Showing that you are dedicated to the volunteer work will demonstrate that you would make a reliable employee. Do your best to make a lasting impression on others at the organization. Look for ways you can help out that aren't necessarily part of your regular duties, or ways to assist others at the organization and make their jobs easier. For instance, if you are volunteering as a social media manager, offer to help out with other marketing duties such as blogging or public relations outreach. Even if you don't turn your volunteer work into a job at that particular organization, going above and beyond what's expected of you can earn you some valuable references for future job applications. Keep track of all the skills you learn and all of the successes you have during your time as a volunteer. These are facts that you will be able to include on your resume and when discussing job opportunities with the organization or other potential employers. While you are volunteering, you can keep a document or spreadsheet to track all of your achievements. For example, if you are volunteering as a social media manager, note down how much you grew the company's social media following during your time as a volunteer. Keep a list of any skills you learned, such as apps or platforms you used to manage social media. Treat networking while you are a volunteer as if it is part of your job description. People you build relationships with can be your advocates later on when you are trying to get a job. Try to get to know as many people as you can at the organization, even if you don't work with them. You never know what connections will come in handy down the road. Little things like remembering someone's birthday or other personal details about them can help you create a deeper connection with people you work with. Add everyone you meet on professional networks such as LinkedIn or on other social media if you feel comfortable with it. Stay in touch with people you are closest to via email or other forms of communication, even after a volunteer position has ended. For example, you could email or otherwise share links to articles you know a particular person would be interested in. This will help people remember you and keep the connections going for when you want to land a job.
