Talking about sex education: avoiding common misunderstandings
When it comes to sex education, many parents and schools are quite conservative and sensitive. Many parents and teachers avoid talking about this topic, which leads to children's lack of adequate knowledge and understanding of sex education. It is this attitude that has led to many incidents of sexual abuse of children and adolescents. As parents, we should face up to sex education as an important part of family education. Let's talk about sex education to let parents know and avoid some common misunderstandings.

A harmless lie

Parents often answer their children's sexual questions with white lies. However, such lies often make children miss a good opportunity for sex education.

Children's curiosity

Some parents will avoid their children's sexual problems and prevaricate with words like "You are young, you will understand when you grow up". However, this practice will often stimulate children's curiosity and let them find the answers themselves in the future. Due to the lack of correct guidance and knowledge, children may find answers in the wrong channels and even make mistakes.

Nervous and embarrassed

When it comes to sex education, some parents are nervous and embarrassed. Their eyes are evasive, faltering and even embarrassed. This attitude will make children feel that sex is an embarrassing or bad topic. When they grow up, it may be difficult for them to look at their physiological needs positively, and even feel that their physiological needs are shameful.
