Start with young children.
From children's toddler clothes, to avoiding inappropriate language jokes, and to separating men's and women's toilets in kindergartens, these are excellent opportunities for us to gradually guide children to learn to protect themselves.
Parents share the responsibility.
Sex education is not the unilateral responsibility of parents. No matter what questions the children ask, both parents can communicate frankly. Parents should share this responsibility, because we are the closest model of love and being loved.
Curiosity in the golden age
Psychologists point out that 2 to 4 years old is the golden age of sex education. During this period, children are full of curiosity. Their questions are not out of physical needs, but to satisfy their curiosity about the unknown world. Therefore, when children ask us questions, we should respond positively and frankly to satisfy their curiosity.
Continuing education
Sex education is not once and for all, and it needs to be carried out continuously. We can't expect to immunize children for life through one education. Both parents should share this responsibility and create a healthy and harmonious growth environment for their children.
