How to educate children about sex?
1. Should sex education be conducted?

Sex education is an essential knowledge in the normal growth of human beings, which contributes to their development and perfection, so sex education is necessary.

Parents can instill sexual knowledge into their children from an early age. Don't wait until children are really curious about science, because children have correct sexual concepts since childhood, and later parents will instill different sexual education knowledge, which will be easier for them to accept and absorb.

2. How do parents educate their children about sex?

1, let children know how to respect and protect their bodies.

Usually, when taking a bath for your child, you can easily tell the child where all parts of the body touch, such as kissing the cheek, but only for relatives. When a third party is present, you can hold hands with others, but under certain circumstances, the genitals must not be touched, even through clothes and gloves. Teaching children to protect their bodies is not limited to girls, but also to boys, because in the current social news, there are more and more little boys who are violated by mentally abnormal elements. In addition, children should be taught how to protect themselves from strangers' interference in life, between going in and out of the house and in a strange environment.

2. Children should have a positive experience and image of all parts of the body.

Perhaps after Adam and Eve were driven out of the Garden of Eden by God, human beings had a primitive sense of guilt about their bodies. This kind of guilt makes people afraid to discuss sexual issues openly, but it has caused a lot of wrong information and private sexual behavior. Therefore, parents should establish their own psychology, and their bodies should be respected and affirmed. If parents' reaction to children's exploration of genitals is sadness, scolding or punishment, they may make children think that the happiness gained in this way is wrong. This kind of information may hinder the child's ability to accept and give sexual pleasure, and ultimately interfere with the ability to establish love and intimacy. Admitting sexual desire instead of prohibiting sexual desire can enhance children's self-esteem, establish a positive body image and stimulate children's ability and determination. However, sexual performance must be guided by parents. Parents should also use the right words. Parents sometimes use simple words (sometimes not even words) to describe sexual structures, such as "shh" or "ass", which makes children feel negative information about sex, because such words seem to imply that compared with other parts of the body, such as nose, ears and knees, sexual organs (such as vulva and testicles) are very different and embarrassing. This will affect the habits and concepts of health preservation, and even the view of the opposite sex in adolescence. People who usually have negative significance to their bodies will also have negative images of the opposite sex, which will lead to adolescent deviant behaviors, such as rape and abuse.

3. Discuss sex with your child in a positive manner.

Parents should take the initiative to propose topics related to reproduction and sex that are suitable for their children's age, interests and understanding. For example, when a relative or friend is pregnant, it is the right time to explain to the child how the baby is stored in the mother's body, and to use the right terms, such as explaining that the baby grows in a woman's uterus and correctly describing that the uterus is a special place, such as a hotbed for babies. A more positive attitude is that the mother told the child that when she was pregnant with him, she had some feelings and expectations, pointing to the child's navel and saying that it was once connected with her mother. This objective and personal way will make children have a correct view and meaning of sex, no longer vague and no longer have too many illusions.
