Should kindergartens conduct sex education?
There are different views and positions on this issue, so my answer only represents my personal opinion.

In the current social environment, many children have been exposed to various forms of sexual information before kindergarten, such as TV, Internet and advertisements. Therefore, sex education from kindergarten can help children to form correct sexual concepts and values, enhance their sexual awareness and preventive awareness, prevent sexual abuse, and promote the healthy development of children's body and mind.

However, kindergarten is the first learning environment for children, and it is also the place where children begin to contact the society. Kindergarten children are generally young, it is difficult to understand and accept too complicated knowledge and information, and they also lack sufficient self-protection ability. Therefore, sex education in kindergartens needs to choose appropriate language and methods according to children's age characteristics, so as to avoid over-exposure and stimulation of children's sexual concepts and desires, and avoid causing resentment or worry among children or parents.

Therefore, it is not a simple matter to start sex education from kindergarten. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the objectives, contents, methods, opportunities and other factors of education, teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and make scientific plans according to specific conditions and children's characteristics. In the implementation of sex education, we should pay attention to guidance, publicity, education and prevention, create a safe, healthy and harmonious sex education environment, help children and parents to jointly build correct sexual values and norms of sexual behavior, and promote children's all-round development.
