title: An assessment of parent-child communication on sexuality in lagos, Nigeria.
abstract: This study is the first phase of a project designed to help parents acquire skills necessary for comfortable and effective communication about adolescents' sexuality. It assessed parent-child communication on sexuality among the in-school adolescents in Lagos, Nigeria. It was observed that a high proportion of the adolescents interviewed receive information on sexuality from friends and the mass media and also communicate more with their friends on sexuality than with their parents.
