The Indian society is conflicted about sexuality in general and about expectations for teenager behavior in particular. The book attempts to evaluate the communication between parents and teenagers on sex-related issues. Also, it is observed that the sex education imparted in schools is not serving the purpose. Here again, the gap can be filled by parents acting as mediator between school authorities and teenagers.

Despite a number of public health initiatives targeting the sexual health of teenagers, teen pregnancy and STD rates in the U.S. remain exceptionally high. Although schools and peers are common sources of information for teens, research suggests that parents serve as one of the primary sources of sexual health information for adolescents. Many studies have focused on the content of parent-adolescent communication about sex, but more needs to be known about how such communication varies by adolescent gender and across different kinds of families. In this study, regression analysis assessed mother and adolescent In-Home interview data from Wave I of the Adolescent Health dataset (n = 20,745). Findings indicate that family structure and maternal education are somewhat predictive of the communication outcomes, yet adolescent gender remains the most significant factor in communication between mothers and adolescents. In short, mothers communicate more about sexual health with girls than boys, and this gender gap does not vary considerably across family structures or socioeconomic statuses based on maternal education.

The Private Sector Has More Doctors And Fewer Beds Than Government Hospitals, Thereby Emphasizing Outpatient Care. And While Indian Traditions Sanctify Fertility And Motherhood, Government Policies And Health Care Services Are Focused On Controlling Fertility. These Are Some Of The Paradoxes Of India S Health Care System Mrinal Pande Encountered When She Set Out On Her Journey Across Several States To Put Together Information On The Health Of Indian Women.

Purpose: Adolescent sexual health is in the forefront of the nation’s health agenda. Parents can play a critical role in decreasing adolescent sexual risk taking behaviors and improving adolescent sexual health. Parent-adolescent sexual communication (PASC) has been shown to decrease the adolescent’s sexual risk taking behaviors, delay their sexual debut and decrease teenage pregnancies. This study reports on the attitudes, beliefs, and knowledge mothers perceive as barriers and facilitators of sexual communication with their adolescent daughters between the ages of 11-14 years old in a suburban Ohio community. Significance: Using Bandura’s self-efficacy theory to understand the attitudes, beliefs, and content knowledge of mothers of adolescent females can help shape potential interventions, increase compliance and improve outcomes. By identifying barriers and facilitators of mother-daughter sexual communication, providers can create effective interventions and implementation strategies to optimize PASC. Methods: A qualitative study was used to investigate mother-daughter sexual communication from the mother’s perceptions. A convenience sample of ten mothers of adolescents’ females were recruited via social media and fliers in the community and they participated in semi-structured, one-on-one interviews to answer the following research questions: 1. What are the attitudes, beliefs, and content knowledge of mothers of adolescent females in a suburban Ohio community? 2. What do mothers perceive as significant barriers to effective PASC with their adolescent daughters in a suburban Ohio community? 3. What do mothers perceive as significant facilitators to effective PASC with their adolescent daughters in a suburban Ohio community?. The transcripts were analyzed for categories and themes using the steps of Data Analysis and Interpretation outlined by Hesse-Biber and Levy. Results: Mother’s perceived their role as a primary resource of sexual health information and educator. The data revealed the mothers felt confident in their content knowledge and ability to answer any questions. Perceived barriers were lack of initiation of PASC by the adolescent and the mothers’ fear of causing discomfort and embarrassment to their daughter. Mothers perceived signs of puberty and scheduled school based health talks as facilitators to PASC. Discussion: Results of this study can help healthcare providers develop interventions that promote mother-daughter sexual communication. Healthcare providers can play a vital role in developing and implementing these interventions in practice and the community.
