Sexual Health
How should parents implement sex education for their children? Parents should grasp the four principles of sex education for their children
Sex education is an indispensable part of parents' education for their children, but many parents do not know how to correctly introduce the genitalia to their children. Let's take a look together.
The first principle is to answer every question
The child raised a question about the genitalia, indicating that their cognition has developed to the level of understanding this question. Parents must answer their child's questions positively and cannot evade or evade them. Some parents, due to lack of preparation, adopt a panic avoidance approach when their children suddenly ask questions about their genitals, without answering their children's questions. That's exactly what Xiaoyu's father did.
Xiaoyu is a 3-year-old boy. While taking a shower with his father, Xiaoyu pointed to his father's chicken and asked, "Dad, what is this?" Dad asked Xiaoyu in response, "What do you think this is?" Xiaoyu smiled and said, "This is a cow! Both I and Dad have it!" Dad said, "Yes, you and Dad are men
If the father of the little fish is prepared, he can tell the child the name of the genitalia during communication. The little fish already knows the common name of the genitalia is "Niuniu", and what he wants to know is the "big name" of the genitalia. So dad can confidently tell the little fish when communicating, "This is the penis, sometimes we also call it a cow
The second principle is to answer only when asked
The child raised a question before the parents answered it. For children before the age of 6, parents are in a relatively "passive" position when discussing sex with their children. Whether parents continue to answer their children's questions depends on whether the child continues to ask. When the parents' answers satisfy the child very much, the child will not continue to ask, and the parents will no longer continue to answer. In addition, when children ask about the process of adult sexual behavior, such as "how the father's genitalia combines with the mother, so that sperm and eggs can be together", for children before the age of 6, I advocate not to directly tell the child "the father's penis enters the mother's vagina". Some parents use this explanation to bring themselves a lot of trouble.
There is a boy around 5 years old who learned from books and his father that chickens need to enter the vagina before sperm can meet the egg and conceive and give birth. This incident clearly left a deep impression on him. Once, when his mother took a shower and hugged him across from him, he wrapped his legs around his mother's waist and said to himself, "My cock has entered my mother's vagina." Two days later, he suddenly said he wanted to marry his mother and said his cock was about to enter her vagina. It can be seen that parents can use exploratory and simple answers to questions raised by children before the age of 6, such as "parents' genitals combine with sperm and eggs when they touch them". If the child does not continue to inquire about the details of genital bonding, do not continue to explain to the child.
