In the early childhood stage, parents face answering many sexual questions. Answering children's sexual questions is one of the headaches for many parents, and even confident parents can feel awkward and tongue wrenching. When parents and teachers answer children's questions, they can deceive them with sentence structures that they know when they grow up. Can such answers eliminate children's questions? Do children really wait until they grow up to find answers? How should children's gender education be measured?
How to grasp the scale of children's sex education?
Don't avoid children's sexual problems
When children are young, they develop curiosity and ignorance about sex. Parents who avoid their children's questions may make their subconscious feel embarrassed when they ask them questions, and they will no longer ask such questions. Sexual science research has found that every child can distinguish between genders under the guidance of their parents at a very young age. Although they do not understand why to distinguish each other, a certain degree of avoidance and distance from the opposite sex has become subconscious. Therefore, when a child encounters any sexual related issues with you, they often make a great determination. At this time, you must not refuse at all, Believing that this should not be a question asked by a child, or focusing solely on it, will only exacerbate the child's confusion and may potentially turn curiosity into a psychological shadow, setting obstacles for future growth.
Enrich one's sexual knowledge by reading more books and other materials
In order to avoid children not knowing how to answer their own questions, they can take time to supplement some sexual knowledge in their daily lives. Of course, when explaining sexual questions to children, they should try to avoid using dialects. As you put in effort, children will also gain more knowledge. Why not? The scope of sexual science is extremely broad, and one cannot become an expert in this field. However, it is necessary to delve into this knowledge as much as possible. Don't try to escape, because you don't understand. You must know that guidance on sex education is crucial for a child's healthy growth.
Don't worry about the scale of sex education
Many parents are concerned about whether imparting sexual knowledge to their children exceeds what they should have learned in this age group, and whether it will affect their children's development. In fact, children's mastery of knowledge is also gradual, and even if parents educate them too much about sex, children may not necessarily be able to master it. So parents don't have to worry. The questions raised by each age group are different, and once understood, children will not trace their roots like scientists do. Children in their thirties and fours may be satisfied with the answer 'babies grow up in hahaha belly', while occasional masturbation by boys in their thirties and fours will not cause significant physical obstacles and will definitely soothe restless hearts. They will no longer ask about masturbation methods.
Inevitable issues for parents
1. After the birth of a child, regardless of gender, the choice of naming, clothing and Household goods should not be confused to prevent the child from having a vague sense of sex about himself and others since he was young and affecting the child's sexual orientation. Hope that the child is the gender that parents hope for. Parents like boys and girls, and intentionally dress up girls as boys. Dressing up boys as girls can affect the child's personality recognition, thereby changing their personality and behavior.
2. When children are able to hear language, parents must clarify gender differences in areas such as bathing, clothing, hair styling, and toy selection. Through books, picture books, movies, storytelling, etc., children can observe the growth and reproduction of animals and plants, gain a natural understanding of reproduction, accept nature, love others, understand the essence of life, and achieve sexual understanding.
3. Free exploration of one's own body is a good beginning for health education. Parents should choose appropriate opportunities in family life, such as taking a shower or before going to bed, to naturally let their children know about their bodies, especially to make them realize that the reproductive organs are no more mysterious than other organs of the human body, and to keep their children clean and cultivate good hygiene habits.
4. When children ask related questions, parents should not avoid using language and methods that the child can understand and accept to answer, solve and satisfy their curiosity and knowledge desire.
5. The norms of parents' own behavior are also important. If the relationship between parents is sincere, harmonious, and morally noble, set a good example for children, let them fall in love with life, love life, and treat sexual issues correctly.
6. Common problems should be understood appropriately. How are people born? Starting from the fruit of plant flowering, it can be used to illustrate sexual and reproductive aspects, as well as to use demonstrative metaphors from animal reproductive activities. A brief introduction to the physiology of human reproduction can help children identify problems. That is to say, when providing sex education to children, it is necessary to be honest and encourage the less complex children's desire for knowledge, naturally delaying specific details to be understood in their future lives.
