When somebody is growing up they always say their parents tell them the story of the birds and the bees. My parents dont even know this story, and I hit puberty early. I wuz a little girl and I had just had my first family life class and all the girls came out talking about "the talk of the birds and the bees" so asked my parents to tell it to me *funny i know* and they had no clue.
Could somebody please tell me the story?

It's just the name people use to refer to parents telling their kids about sex. It's the sex talk, basically.
It just means to always use a condom, wait until you're ready [basically, wait until you're in love & until you're old enough], & to never be scared to discuss it with them.

When parents first talk to their kids about sex and reproduction, they often start out by explaining how plants and animals reproduce. You know, how the bees help pollenate the flowers, and how birds find a mate and build a nest and lay eggs. Back in the old days, people didn't talk about sex as openly as we do now. So instead of saying, "I told my daughter about sex today", they would just say, "I told her about the birds and the bees." And the term has just sort of stuck.
