When is the Best Time for Children's Sexual Education? Don't Miss the Three Stages of Sexual Education for Children

Proper sex education is essential for children's growth, so when is it best to provide sex education for them? In fact, it is best for parents to do a good job in sex education in three stages.

Staged sex education

1. 3-7 years old is the first stage of educating children

During this period, children will begin to be interested in their parents' genitals, which is the period of psychological emergence of the "Oedipus/Oedipus" plot. At this point, we can provide children with preliminary sex education, allowing them to understand their own genitals and establish awareness of protecting their genitals.

2. After entering primary school, 7-12 years old is the second stage of sex education

After the child enters elementary school, they can start teaching him more about sex, such as how to protect themselves. If a boy or other man wants to touch it, what can he do when it's crucial. For example, tell him to shout for help or refuse with other things, rather than letting others touch them casually. If children really have a chance to be hurt, as parents, we need to stand up and protect them.

3. The third stage is after the age of 12

The age of 12 is a watershed, and sex education for children before the age of 12 can be provided by both parents, but after the age of 12, it must be separated. Boys are provided by the father, and girls are provided by the mother. Because this period is adolescence, for boys, it is the period when their sexual organs begin to mature and there will be a phenomenon of ejaculation. Girls are also the same, and at this point, girls will begin to experience menstruation. If both parents provide sex education at the same time, the child may be shy or even refuse.

How parents should improve themselves

1. You should have the spirit of being willing to accept new things, the courage to keep up with the pace of the times, and a curious search for all changes, rather than sitting there all day lamenting the "declining world".

2. You need to have a strong thirst for knowledge and constantly acquire new knowledge. You should try to find as many books on sexuality as possible and read at least twenty classic works on sexuality. It is important to pay attention to the academic authority and conceptual advancement of these works, and not to read them indiscriminately.
