I can say I might have had a meaningful relationship with parents if they were the kind of people to ask some of these questions when I was young. Questions are not trite and do not treat the person as dumb.

I actually feel like questions should be _genuinely_ discussed earlier than the article suggests; more like tweens minus the virginity question.
