Family sex education: the key role of parents and the power of scientific knowledge
The importance of sex education is increasingly prominent, and many parents expect schools to take on this responsibility. However, school education alone is not enough. We need the joint efforts of schools, families and society, especially when sex education in schools needs to be improved. Family plays an indispensable role in children's sex education.

The importance of parents

From the moment the child was born, the first contact was with his parents and family. Parents play a vital role in sex education. Their daily care, the care among family members, the example they set for their children, their attitude towards the opposite sex, their reaction to sexual problems, and their views on social phenomena such as marriage, pregnancy and childbirth all affect their sexual concepts.

The role of parents

Parents are the enlighteners of children's sexual knowledge and morality, and their role in sex education is irreplaceable. Parents who really care about their children should attach great importance to sex education. Some parents worry that discussing sexual issues will prompt their children to experience sexual behavior prematurely, but many studies show that the result of sex education is just the opposite of this worry.

The importance of open dialogue

Open discussion on sexual knowledge can reduce children's curiosity, and open dialogue between parents and children can also provide them with clear codes of conduct. When children get satisfactory sex education from their parents, they will be more confident, more responsible and more willing to communicate with their parents, thus avoiding unnecessary risks.

Importance of scientific knowledge

Proper sex education by parents can help children protect themselves with scientific knowledge and skills and promote their healthy growth. Parents' own sexual knowledge level and sexual morality have a direct impact on children's physical and mental health.

The importance of learning

For the sake of children's health, parents need to constantly learn and improve their own sexual knowledge and educational methods to understand the laws of children's physical and mental development. Only in this way can we create a healthy and safe growth environment for children together.
