The purpose of sex education is to guide children to understand human sexual development and behavior, help them understand the nature and normality of sexual behavior, and master correct self-protection skills; At the same time, sex education should also emphasize the principles of gender equality, respect for individual choice and personality rights. The contents of sex education include sexual knowledge, sexual morality, prevention of sexual abuse and how to obtain sexual health.
Secondly, we need to know the appropriate period of sex education. After children enter adolescence, their sexual awareness will gradually increase and they will become interested in sexual issues. Therefore, sex education before puberty can focus on physiological knowledge about human body structure, origin of life, excretion and so on. After puberty, the prevention of sexual behavior and sexually transmitted diseases should be properly involved.
Finally, we should establish a good environment for sex education. This includes providing appropriate educational materials and information, and establishing an open and trusting communication environment so that children don't have to feel embarrassed and ashamed. At the same time, parents and educators should provide personalized and professional sex education services for children according to their age and needs.
