Nine Signals Suggest Your Child's Early Love: How to Prevent Sexual Premature in Children
In China, the term 'early love' has a negative and sexy appeal towards elders, generally referring to the love between teenagers under the age of 18, especially among primary and secondary school students. Early love behavior is a practice in which adolescents transform their psychology into behavior based on their sexual and physiological development.
9 signals of early love in children
(1) Children particularly enjoy dressing up, pay attention to embellishing themselves, and always look forward to it in the mirror.
(2) Sudden decline in grades and lack of concentration in the course.
(3) The lively and active child suddenly became silent and didn't want to talk to their parents.
(4) I can't sit still at home, often find excuses to go out, hide from my parents in places such as parks and singing halls, and sometimes even lie.
(5) After school, I like to hide in my room alone or stay on the side thinking about things, often wandering and in a daze.
(6) Emotional fluctuations, excitement, depression, irritability, and impatience in work.
(7) Suddenly interested in literary works, movies, and television that depict love.
(8) Suddenly like to talk about things between men and women.
(9) Secretly writing letters and diaries behind the back of parents, and seeing others rushing to cover up.
Middle school students in early love often exhibit some abnormal phenomena. For example, when distracted during class, mental confusion, and a sudden decline in academic performance, there are significant emotional fluctuations, such as starting to pay attention to uncomfortable clothing, suddenly spending money recklessly, and being good at showing off oneself in front of a certain opposite sex. Some people send letters or make phone calls, but the sender or caller does not keep their address or name
There are three misconceptions in adolescent sex education
Misunderstanding 1: Adequate sex education for adolescents. According to Durex's 2004 Global Situation Report, the average age of Chinese adolescents receiving sex education for the first time was 13.7 years old, ranking seventh among 41 countries surveyed.
Myth 2: The earlier sex education, the earlier sexual behavior. This is one of the reasons why many parents dare not discuss sex with their children. It's not that teenagers will not engage in sexual activity if they don't talk about sex. The actual situation in China and many countries is that the number of unmarried girls who conceive before marriage is increasing, and they don't know too much about sex, but rather too little
Myth 3: Sex education is to avoid getting pregnant before marriage. Teenager sex education should not only avoid Premarital sex, but also expand the scope of prevention of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. According to statistics, as of September 1999, there were 15000 cases of AIDS and HIV infection in China, of which 58% were young people aged 20-29. In countries where adolescent sex education is well conducted, this rate has significantly decreased.
