There is a common sense way to present the topic and to discuss it. Since children seem to be inundated with media sexualization and we are being told teens are becoming sexually active at the age of 12 or earlier... why not let them know that sex at that age is inappropriate, that no one should make you feel like it is ok to have sex so young, and that they have the power to say no or to stop it from happening?

The way you describe above would be OK but you are not really discussing Rape as that would require a discussion that would necessitate some pretty dark descriptions . So I think the word rape is a bit misleading in this context.
