Q:
My daughter is in the senior kindergarten and is usually taken care of by her parents-in-law after school. There are two TVs at home, one in the living room and one in the bedroom. Recently, I found that my child would hide in the bedroom to watch porn, which shocked me! It turned out that she accidentally saw it by herself after school one time, so she watched it intermittently for a long time. I really don’t know how to deal with it. I am very worried that she will continue to watch it when adults are not paying attention.
Answer:
TV brings a lot of fun to modern people’s lives, but it also brings a lot of troubles. Among them, parents often worry about their children watching inappropriate programs, watching TV for too long, and too many tempting advertisements on TV.
The child watched pornographic films and continued to watch them for a while, basically out of curiosity, and she didn&39;t know that it was an inappropriate program. When you find out, in addition to telling her: "This is not a program for children!", a more proactive approach is:
1. Pay attention to whether the broadcast time of TV programs is inappropriate, and report your opinions to the TV station or report to the relevant authorities. You can also lock the TV channels at home to filter out inappropriate programs.
2. Discuss with your family and help your child arrange his life after school. For example, chat with grandpa and grandma, take a walk, make an appointment with playmates, or prepare new storybooks for her, so that she will not feel bored alone and always regard watching TV as the only activity.
3. When you have time to watch TV with her, don&39;t forget the importance of opportunity education. In addition to talking about your own feelings and thoughts, you should also listen to your child&39;s opinions so that you can find out whether the information she receives from the program is wrong in time.
Children&39;s curiosity about "sex" is a natural phenomenon in the process of growth. Children over 5 years old still have limited knowledge of sex. Girls usually just think that they will be mothers and have their own babies when they grow up. Around 6 years old, they may play some sex-related games, such as: exposing their bodies, pretending to give birth to babies (stuffing dolls in clothes). If parents can answer their children&39;s questions with a calm attitude and respect and love each other in daily life, it will help children to have a correct understanding of gender relations.
When it comes to TV, you don&39;t just need to deal with the problem of your children watching porn. You may have to adjust the relationship between TV and your family&39;s life. Otherwise, if you watch porn today, you may have new troubles tomorrow. It is recommended that you take this opportunity to start from the root!
