Will puberty last my whole life?
What is it like to have a period? When will puberty start and stop? These are a few of the hundreds of real questions submitted anonymously by kids in the classes that my next radio guest teaches in Seattle.
Julie Metzger, RN, MN based the book, Will Puberty last my whole life?: Real Questions from Pre-Teens about Body Changes, Sex and other growing up stuff on these questions with her co-author Robert Lehman, MD. Julie has worked for more than twenty years with families of preteens and teens on topics of puberty, sexuality, and decision making.
Bringing a wealth of knowledge from her experiences, Metzger is a well-respected and popular speaker on a wide range of parenting issues, has worked in many capacities as a nurse consultant, and is the parent of three young adults.
Join us as Julie shares what kids want to know more about, what they’re dreading and most looking forward to when it comes to puberty.
