Experts agree that parents play the most effective role in establishing their children's sexual values. Parents are the primary sex educator in their child's life. But what do you say, and when? How do you raise a standard in your home while the rest of the world is trying to tear it down? How can you deal with the shadows of your own sexual past? The Silver Ring Thing for Parents offers timeless answers and foundational truths for parents who want the best for their kids.

The Silver Ring Thing is preparing your child to make a commitment to sexual abstinence until marriage. The symbol of that commitment will be a silver ring worn until your son or daughter's wedding day. But how will they navigate the next five to ten years of sexual pressure? We will do all we can to help your child make and keep this commitment, but parents must take an active role to make a difference. Your partnership, your encouragement, and your participation in their lives will be a vital key to success.

As part of the SRT Programme we run parallel sessions at each Silver Ring Thing event. At each session we inform parents about the destructive culture our students are living in and will instruct and empower them to engage their children amidst this culture.

The Silver Ring Thing Parents Seminar will address:

• The role of parents in abstinence defining family standards about dating, sex, and intimacy
  
• Minding the media - looking at the cultural messages and how to diffuse their power
  
• The benefits of postponing dating and providing dating alternatives

• Opportunities to get involved and make a difference

Thank you and God Bless.
