Post Date May, 23 2023
More and more parents are realizing the importance of providing sex education to their children, actively studying many related courses, and reading many related books. However, even if one has a comprehensive knowledge reserve and fails to pay attention to the details of life, it can lead to many problems in sex education and even affect the final outcome. Next, let's take a look at the details of life that parents need to pay attention to when providing sex education to their children.
What kind of life details should parents pay attention to when providing sex education to their children?
1. Be careful when entering the bath
Before the age of 3, parents can bathe their children and convey gender knowledge to them during the bathing process. You can also show your child your body and tell them the differences between men and women. However, children over 4 years old must pay attention to taking a shower. It is important for a father to take a shower with a boy and a mother to take a shower with a girl. Because it helps establish children's gender awareness and privacy boundaries.
2. Avoid children when changing clothes
Some parents do not view their children as individuals or as independent personalities, so do not avoid changing clothes. If the guardian is of the same gender as the child, this can be done temporarily, but the gender difference between the guardian and the child can affect the progress of sex education. If children often change clothes in front of them, they will develop curiosity about the opposite sex's body. If they cannot see the correct answer from their parents, they will explore it themselves, which is easy to harm or be hurt by others.
3. Don't go to the bathroom in front of children
The same applies when using the restroom, especially when the gender of the guardian is different from that of the child. Some parents believe that there is no need to be too particular at home and do not close the door when using the restroom. Always conveying the wrong idea to children, there is no need to close the door when using the restroom. If you continue to behave like this when using the restroom outside, you will be accidentally watched and bad people will enter empty spaces.
4. Don't let children discover that their parents are having sex
If a child is too young, don't let them discover that their parents are having sex, because you can't explain it to them well. If a child's curiosity is accidentally aroused, it can be more troublesome. The main content of sex education for children of different age groups is different, and advanced education must not be carried out.
