Testimonials
"Calling all parents! Listen up. This is an excellent videotape about puberty and human sexuality. It discusses not only the mechanics but also the ethics of sex. An excellent resource with which to begin a dialogue." Dr. Robert Brayden, MD, Associate Professor of Pediatrics, University of Colorado Health Sciences Center
Many parents rely on books to provide information about puberty and sex for their children. This video does the job just as well, if not better, in providing a brief (approx. 20 minutes) overview of the facts. Hitting just the right tone throughout, the program opens with Dr. Brandon Davison-Tracy, a young pony-tailed pediatrician, who tells the viewer to make sure he's "ready" to learn about this topic. Dr. Davison-Tracy also urges that any questions should be addressed by a parent, grandparent, teacher or doctor. Then he turns the program over to Jason, a young, all-American college kid. Friendly yet serious, Jason will immediately put young boys at ease. He smiles and delivers his explanations clearly and seriously, but doesn't preach. He talks about the changes to expect during puberty, from muscles growing to having an erection. Cartoon figures help lighten the serious topics and make them even more understandable. My sons got a kick out of the cartoon penis turning stiff as hearts flew from it. "Having sex is a decision YOU make," Jason says. There is no religious view espoused here. Jason urges responsibility and respect with regard to your body and a girl's body. And he says that he, personally, has "decided to wait until I'm married." Ann Oldenburg ©2003 Parents' Choice
"Of all the resources that exist to aid parents in teaching their children about sex and puberty this video is, by far, the most medically accurate, thoughtful, and easiest to understand. It is the single most important tool for parents with children who have questions about the "birds and the bees"." Dr. Brandon Davison-Tracy MD, Board Certified Pediatrician and Fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics
"The Birds, The Bees, And Me" presents sensitive material in a straight forward manner allowing both the parents and children to have an open and frank discussion about pruberty. A masterful job of removing the anxieties is accomplished through this video. Paul Jagels - 6th grade teacher, 35 years
My son and I just viewed “The Birds, The Bees, and Me” and I was really pleased. It is exactly what I needed to transfer into this topic with my son. I really liked the young man that hosted the program. He related to my son better then an adult could have. Great job and thanks a ton! - Mark Heitmeier – Dallas, Texas
I wanted to provide you with some positive feedback regarding your Birds and the Bees video. Both of my daughters (10 & 12) viewed the video and were amazed and captivated. I have a great and open relationship with them but your program explained things much better then I could have ever imagined. It opened up their minds for additional questions and that is just what I had hoped for. Well done. - Kathy Nahman - San Jose, California
Where were you with this video three years ago? I sure wish I had this for my oldest girl. I have no idea where this type of information was when I was growing up but I’m glad you were able to produce it for my youngest daughter. I will assume that the boys video that I ordered is equally informative. Thank you! - Diane Grierson - Englewood, CO
