For children, sex education is not static. It also has its own period. If you grasp these periods, children&39;s sex education will become easy.
Oral stage age: 3 months to 1 year old
When the baby is about 3 months to 1 year old, the baby&39;s attraction needs are particularly prominent. They like to attract fingers, which is the initial manifestation of the baby&39;s oral sexual desire.
Physical contact between mother and child can increase the sensitivity of the child&39;s nervous system and promote the differentiation and development of the child&39;s brain. Children who have insufficient physical contact with adults will suffer varying degrees of damage to their intelligence and sexual sensitivity.
If you are afraid that the baby will bite your fingers, don&39;t force it. You can consider giving the baby a nipple to satisfy the needs of the sexual period.
Age stage of the fuzzy period: 1 to 2 years old
Generally, from 1 to 2 years old, children notice the physical differences between men and women. With the development of language skills, children aged 2 to 3 will ask some questions that are very embarrassing for adults. If children suffer psychological setbacks during this period, it will affect their future growth.
1.5 years old is a very good time to educate children about sexual physiology. If possible, you can even let boys and girls of the same age take a bath together, let them expose their little bodies to identify the differences in each other&39;s physiological structures, and encourage them to observe where the other party is different from themselves.
Age stage of sexual bud period: 2 to 4 years old
Children enter the sexual bud period when they are 2 to 4 years old. Sexual education during this period is the basis for future sexual maturity. Many children start to play with their genitals around the age of 2, which is a kind of sexual game for them.
A better way to prevent children from playing with their genitals is to wear crotchsealed pants for them and arrange a variety of activities for them every day to divert their attention.
Parents can choose the right time in daily life to let their children understand which part of their body should not be exposed, which part is not good, etc.
Age stage during love: 4 to 6 years old
Children in this period begin to fall in love, also known as the love of the love mother (love father). This complex is common in the process of children&39;s sexual psychology development, is suppressed by the subconscious, and may become the psychological root of various mental illnesses in the future.
A warm and happy family has a profound impact on children and becomes a model of good children. Samesex parents are models for children to form gender awareness, and oppositesex parents are models for children to learn to interact with the opposite sex. So whether it is mother or father, they must actively cooperate to raise children together and provide children with a good growth environment.
Potential age stage: 6 to 12 years old
Children enter the potential period at the age of 6 to 12. Children at this stage have a relatively calm sexual psychology. For children at this stage, boys like to play intense and adventurous games with boys, and girls like to dance with other girls, jump rubber bands and other gentle games. Although this kind of pseudohomosexuality does not have the sexual awareness and desire of adults, it may also be the psychological root of homosexuality when the development of sexual psychology is frustrated in the future.
The sooner you start talking about sex with your children, the better. The best way to educate preschool children about sex is to respond appropriately to children&39;s problems and related behaviors, and to do it in potential silence.
