In this traditional country and traditional education, sex education has always been a difficult issue for people to talk about. We started offering physics classes in junior high school, but during class, students still listen with red faces and ears. But we also have to educate our children about sexual knowledge, which makes parents anxious. So how much do we teach our children about correct sexual knowledge?
Children nowadays are generally more precocious and have a much greater understanding of knowledge than the previous generation. So it's best for parents to start educating their children about sexual awareness and gender differences before the age of 5. If not educated in advance, children may have no concept of gender when they enter kindergarten. So, how to communicate sexual knowledge to children?
1. Not avoiding children's sexual issues: This is a misconception among many parents. When children ask about sexual knowledge, parents tend to avoid it. However, parents are unaware that this approach may actually make their children more curious, leading to misunderstandings and obstacles in their growth process.
2. Grasping the scale issue: In the constraints of traditional thinking in our country, parents always think that letting their children learn about sexual knowledge too early may be detrimental to their growth. In fact, such an idea is redundant. Giving children sexual knowledge in advance can better help them protect themselves, but in the education stage, it must be progressive and the scale should not be too large.
