Cosmetics may cause precocious puberty in children. Children's sex education should focus on these six points
In the United States, where precocious puberty is more severe among children, experts have found that children aged 8 to 12 have already started falling in love, and there are also children who resist their parents like adolescents. The music they usually listen to is full of sexual cues, and playing games is also adult level. Child experts point out that the cost of precocious puberty can be significant, and children and parents may face adult topics such as contraception and sexually transmitted diseases.
Experts say that excessive use of cosmetics or premature puberty in children
1. Tumor signs. Some precocious puberty is the appearance of tumors in the body, which can secrete substances similar to sex hormones. When the tumor is young, it secretes a large amount of sex hormones, which is enough to cause sexual development. Children with precocious puberty must seek medical attention immediately and receive treatment as soon as possible.
2. Not long. Children with idiopathic precocious puberty are affected by sex hormones in their receptors, leading to premature acceleration of physical growth, early fusion of epiphyses, shortened growth period, and early cessation of growth. Generally speaking, after a girl's menarche, the average length of a boy's first ejaculation within 3 years can only be about 5 centimeters, and the final height of children with precocious puberty is actually lower than that of their peers.
3. Psychological disorders. Children with precocious puberty develop their sexual characteristics early, but their psychological and intellectual development levels are still at the actual age level. Premature onset of sexual characteristics and reproductive organ development can cause psychological disorders for immature children, especially when seeing different personality traits between themselves and those around them, which can easily lead to children's inferiority complex. The possibility of such psychological sequelae in adulthood is high.
4. Affects learning. It should be said that the appearance of sexual characteristics and the development of reproductive organs will definitely distract children, especially girls. Early menstruation often feels uneasy, shy, and nervous. At the same time, girls' physical development is too early to handle the impact of menstruation on life, and the imbalance in physiological and psychological development also brings many inconveniences to life, which will definitely affect children's reading and learning.
5. Early sexual activity. The psychological and physical development of children with precocious puberty is extremely inconsistent, coupled with their young physiological age, shallow social experience, and poor self-control ability, which can easily lead to premature sexual behavior and the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.
Children's sex education should grasp these six points
1. After a child is born, regardless of gender, do not confuse the choice of naming, clothing, and daily necessities to prevent the child from developing ambiguous sexual awareness towards themselves and others from an early age, which may affect their sexual orientation.
