Key item features

“I had no idea having sex as a teenager could affect the rest of my life.”

What does a three-pound brain have to do with one’s sex life? A lot, actually.

Breakthroughs in the burgeoning field of neuroscience explain the impact of sex on the developing brains of adolescents and young adults. Through scientific data put in layman’s terms, this book demonstrates that:

  • Sexual activity releases chemicals in the brain, creating emotional bonds between partners.
  • Breaking these bonds can cause depression and make it harder to bond with someone else in the future.
  • Chemicals released in the brain during sex can become addictive.
  • The human brain is not fully developed until a person reaches their mid-20s. Until then, it is harder to make wise relationship decisions.

Parents and others who care about young people now have the facts to steer them away from making life-changing mistakes, and lead them toward reaching their full potential. 

This book will help parents and singles understand that “safe sex” isn't safe at all; that even if they are protected against STDs and pregnancy, they are still hurting themselves and their partner.

A significant book based on legtimate research

The information is this book is current, legtimate, and based on sound research. This is a book that should be read by all parents of elementary-age children so they can start teaching their children BEFORE puberty. If your children are already junior or senior high, or college age, or newly married..it is still IMPERATIVE that they read this book. The book is written by researchers but it is written for the "layman." A person does NOT have to be a professor to understand what is being said. Read the book. Come out of deception and into the light.
