Good gender education can help children grow up well.
Although the current society advocates equality between men and women, such equality between men and women is based on gender cognition, and such equality emphasizes the equality of personality, not the external equality of everyone. Therefore, good gender cognition can help children find their own role orientation and better pursue social equality.
Gender education can guide children to establish healthy personality characteristics.
Gender education is to let children choose their own healthy personality characteristics according to their own physiological characteristics. Nowadays, due to the influence of traditional ideas, a large number of parents educate their children in nature, ignoring the education of their children's gender.
Such problems lead to more and more girls showing masculine characteristics, while more and more boys become sensitive and delicate, even lacking masculinity.
Parents' gender education plays an important role in children's growth. Good gender education can help children to have a sense of gender, so as to give full play to their gender advantages and overcome their personality problems. Of course, gender education should be gradual, and it can't be done overnight.
Gender education timetable
3~6 years old gender education enlightenment period
According to scientific research, the key period of children's gender education lies in early childhood, but in China, due to the influence of traditional concepts, gender education is not perfect, and children's gender and cognitive errors often appear in early childhood.
Therefore, both parents and kindergartens should attach importance to the gender enlightenment of children aged 3-6 and help them correctly understand the physiological gender.
The Key Period of Gender Education —— Primary School
As soon as children enter school, they begin to receive public education to help them understand the differences between men and women, and to help them understand the privacy of the body and the names of various parts. This is the obligation of parents.
Let children understand the social norms between different sexes and help them master the correct social procedures. Of course, at this stage, parents should also popularize the physiological phenomena of menstruation knowledge and nocturnal emission to their children in time.
Middle school stage
When children enter middle school, parents should promptly popularize the concept of adolescence, help children face personal privacy correctly, learn to protect themselves and prevent sexual harassment and sexual harm. At this stage, parents should also help their children understand teenagers' sexual impulses to avoid the occurrence of abortion.
How should parents educate their children about gender?
Give children general gender education in an appropriate way.
Children always ask questions about gender. At this time, parents should guide their children to have a preliminary understanding of their gender with a positive and optimistic attitude and help them establish the concept of gender differences between men and women.
At the same time, parents can also properly educate their children about gender according to their personality characteristics and age and within the scope of their understanding.
Parents should help their children understand the sexual organs of the human body.
When children pay attention to their appearance and internal organs, they will also pay attention to their sexual organs, and even play with them because they lack common sense of gender. At this time, parents should give their babies gender awareness education in time to help them know their sexual organs.
At the same time, parents can let the baby observe the gender differences in the process of accompanying the baby to take a bath and reduce the baby's innate curiosity.
Help children identify with their gender.
In most cases, babies will understand their gender, but only in a state of understanding. In this process, parents are the best role models for babies, and babies can learn the difference between female roles and male roles from their parents.
Therefore, parents should make their babies aware of the differences and advantages of different sexes and avoid the problem of gender inferiority or even gender cognitive impairment. In this process, parents should reduce the cross-talk to their baby, which will only make the baby deny his gender and cause confusion in gender cognition.
In fact, parents should treat their children's gender education with a positive and optimistic attitude. Many times, children will have the problem of gender cognitive impairment, which comes from parents' wrong gender education. Therefore, when children enter the growth period, parents should consciously help them understand their gender.
Compared with the past, the perfect gender standard began to differ, and many children had gender cognition problems since childhood. We should know that gender education is related to their future social life. As parents, we should try our best to help children understand their own gender and the gender differences between men and women from the gender sensitive period.
