Canadian made Facts of Life App now available for iPad

 

The Facts Of Life is a new application designed to help parents answer difficult questions their children may have about Sexual Health.
Sexual Education can be a very confusing and a hard topic to breach. This app will help parents and children discuss sexual education in a fun, wholesome, and appropriate way.
The app was launched by a well known Registered Psychologist, Dr. Jillian Roberts, who specializes in Child and Adolescent Psychology. She has helped support the psycho-social development of hundreds children in her
psychological practice in Victoria BC, Canada. Dr. Roberts is not only a psychologist, but also the devoted mother of three children.
As with most parents, she wants her children’s knowledge to come from her - not from classmates, TV, or the Internet. And this is why Dr. Roberts decided to invent this one of its kind Sexual Education App for children; the appis age appropriate with “just enough” information for your kids to understand Sexual Health.
