Summary:

"Social media, television, and the internet are feeding a destructive culture in the US. Students now widely accept distorted views of intimate relationships, and their larger-than-life sexual expectations have made hookups, sending nudes, and rampant pornography into a dysfunctional way of life. But at what cost? Barb Winters documents the heavy loads of anxiety, worry, and depression that she has witnessed among today's young people, and Sexpectations offers practical advice for anyone desiring to help others discover healthier options. Her much-needed personal stories, professional experience, and guidance into biblical truths can help parents, grandparents and young leaders learn and remember the fundamentals of healthy relationships"-- Provided by publisher.
