Sexual Wisdom for Catholic Adolescents

Sexual Wisdom for Catholic Adolescents

Catholicism is in a crisis of sexuality education. Very few Catholic teenagers and young adults know and love the unsurpassable teaching of the Church on sexuality. A 2008 study found that 60% of Catholic college students believe that abortion should be legal and that premarital sex is not a sin. Even in homes where Catholic values are strongly emphasized, the children often fall into serious sexual sin as adolescents and young adults. To address this urgent need, Dr. Richard Wetzel, who gave us the incalculably valuable book, Sexual Wisdom, now offers the course he gives to his own 16 to 17 year-old Catholic teens: Sexual Wisdom for Catholic Adolescents. This book is authentically Catholic, written by an internationally recognized sexuality expert who has been featured on EWTN, Catholic Family Radio, and Fox Television, and is the first course of its kind: truly comprehensive, for older teens. Parents may read the book together with their child or, teenagers may read it themselves. The book is written in an easy to understand style and includes four appendices with material for younger students. Other books, courses and presentations for teens on Catholic sexuality are geared toward 13 to 14 year olds or for group presentations and so, by necessity, cannot address many of the most important issues facing young Catholics. The Church teaches that parents are the primary sexuality educators of their children and this book gives parents the tools to do just that: to teach teenagers what they should know before they leave the nest, so that they get correct information from the home, not hearsay from the street. A most unique and exciting aspect of this book is its Publisher s Pledge to all dioceses, high schools and parishes in the United States and to all dioceses throughout the world. The publisher will provide a copy of the book for all 11th grade students every year for $2 each, which is essentially at cost (retail price $12.95) plus shipping, if the books are sent home in an envelope along with a letter that explains to parents the options of a parent going through the course with the student or just having the student read it on his or her own.
