Note: I (Carrie) used this study with our oldest son when he was a sophomore, and while I must admit I was hesitant to discuss some of the topics it really became an incredible time of sharing between the two of us.
Our discussions were very rich and honest. With such a God-honoring text like this in hand (and armed with its truly excellent and thought-provoking questions), all I had to do was ask the questions in the guide and discuss the answers with my son.
Rest assured that Total Health deals with all topics in such a Biblical way. Consequently, even potentially-tough topics point your child closer to the Lord. My oldest son was just saying what good memories he has of doing this study and of the discussions he had with me!
