I believe many parents have a deep understanding. When I was a kid, my mom said I picked it up from the garbage. Sometimes my mother will say that I changed from her armpit. Anyway, the more she says, the more curious I am, the more confused I am. If we avoid or mislead children's answers, children's sense of existence will weaken and they will feel unimportant. We think funny answers actually make children feel inferior.
So what's the answer? Children of different ages have different answers.
For two or three-year-old children, it is enough to say "you were born from your mother's stomach", and children will generally be satisfied.
Children will continue to ask this question when they are four or five years old. We can say, "You were born to your parents."
If it's a mother who has a caesarean section, you can show the child the scar and tell the child that the doctor took it out from here. If you are a natural mother, you can tell your child that you came out of the passage under your mother's stomach. "
By the age of five or six, the problem of children has escalated. "How did I get in?" At this time, you can tell your child: "Because mom and dad love each other, the sperm in dad's body is combined with the egg in mom's body, and that's you. Then you grow up slowly in your mother's body, and when you grow up to about 40 weeks, you will come out of your mother's stomach. "
In addition, we need to make a little agreement with our children: "This is our little secret and we can't tell anyone."
The principle that parents should grasp is that we will answer whatever the child asks! The answer is simple and clear. Children no longer ask questions, and we don't have to answer them in depth.
