The data collection technique is by conducting observations, interviews and documentation. The results of this study indicate that the challenges faced by millennial parents in providing sexual education to children are. The influence of social media, dependence on uncurated online information, social stigma that still exists, Gaps in inclusive or open teaching and Cultural and religious resistance. These challenges affect the effectiveness of delivering sexual education in the family, which in the end can have an impact on children's understanding of incorrect sexuality issues.
