HOW TO TALK TO YOUR DAD ABOUT PERIODS! + Discussion Guide | Ladies of Lavender | Let's Talk About It

In today's Ladies of Lavender video, we will be giving our advice on how to talk about periods with your dad. Featuring: a dad! Make sure to watch in 1080p (HD), and check out the discussion guide below. We suggest you watch this video with your dad to start the conversation!

~discussion guide~
1. Do you feel uncomfortable when talking with your dad about periods? Why or why not?
2. If you answered 'yes' to the question above: What do you think you could do to make yourself more comfortable? What do you think your dad could do to make you feel more comfortable?
3. Are you ever too scared to ask for period products like pads, tampons, or panty liners? Why or why not?
4. If you answered 'yes' to the question above: What was something that we recommended you do to help your dad buy you period products? Do you think that would work for you? Why or why not?
5. Do you feel like you need more help understanding your period? Why or why not?
6. If you answered 'yes' to the question above: Do you think receiving help from your parents would help you to understand your period more? If so, what are some areas you need help in? (ex: You don't understand how tampons work, you get really bad cramps and you don't know why, you don't know which period products you should use, you don't really understand what a period is)
7. Would you feel comfortable asking for help if you needed it? Why or why not?
8. If you answered 'no' to the question above: What are some things you could do to make yourself more comfortable? What is something your dad could do to help you to be more comfortable with asking him for help?
9. If you are using this with your dad, or a parent, let them ask you questions.
10. Continue the conversation!
