When this mom offered to help her daughter pack up her college apartment, she didn’t expect to stumble across... a dildo. Cue the gasp, the judgment, and the very awkward silence. In this episode, Mel and Suzie talk about why finding a sex toy shouldn’t be treated like discovering a crime scene—and why some parents still freak out over their children becoming adults.
Mel’s take? It’s not a big deal. So why do some moms act like their daughters’ sexuality is a moral emergency? Let’s talk about shame, double standards, and how to stop making sex such a taboo topic at home.
Tune in, share your truth, and let’s talk about it
