Recently, I was reading a book called Parents' Words, which introduced some skills of how to communicate with children in our life. I think it's good. There is a topic about sex education. The question is: Mom, where am I from?

I will sort it out and share it with you, hoping to inspire you.

My child is in the first grade. He heard the teacher say that the chicken was hatched in the hen's stomach and the fish was born by the fish mother. A classmate in the class told the child on the phone that he was sent by his parents. The child went home and asked his mother to know where he came from.

Speech suggestion: don't run away, answer calmly.

"You were brought here by your parents from far away." (×)

The result is that children are more curious about their own life experiences.

Let's just say:

"You were born in your mother's belly." (√)

The result is that the child's curiosity is satisfied, which is the mother's own.

I think many parents talk about transsexuality and have great misunderstandings about sex education, so the issues related to sex education will be very embarrassing. Parents deliberately change the subject to avoid answering, and children will be more curious and even obtain sexual knowledge through some improper channels.

In fact, sex education covers a wide range, including not only sex itself, but also understanding of gender, understanding of body organs and safety education. When children ask questions about sex, parents should not avoid them. For example, tell your child, "You were born in your mother's belly." If the child stops asking questions, your answer satisfies his curiosity.

When parents face their children's questions, positive and scientific answers are the way to start sex education.

Stop fooling around and answer scientifically.

"You picked it up from the trash can." (×)

Result: The child will be confused and have a blank face.

Let's just say:

"You were born after your mother was pregnant for ten months." ㈤

The result is that children know that they are their mother's own and love their mother more.

Parents can't face up to sex education, but only pass on the wrong concept of sex to their children. For some parents, scientific terms such as "breasts" that are shy are just like eyes, nose and ears in children's eyes, and they are part of the body. The calmer you speak, the more normal your child will feel.

A crude, popular answer.

"Come here, baby. Today mom will tell you the origin of life. " (×)

The result is: children are not interested or feel a little puzzled.

Let's just say:

"Mom has a small house in her belly, which is very warm. That's where you grew up. " (√)

The result is that the child's curiosity is satisfied and he knows that he is his mother's favorite baby.

When children don't understand scientific organ terminology, parents can tell them with more vivid and intuitive metaphors. For example, in an Indian film and television work, dad used a bird to break its shell to compare the birth of a baby. No matter how old a child is, he can follow his curiosity and conduct proper sex education in a way that children can understand.
