How to teach sexual care to our children? / Awareness of children about suspicious behaviors

Family group; زهره سعیدی: Some parents think that if counselors and psychologists talk about sex education and care, they should explain everything to their children about pregnancy, sexual behavior, and sexual issues, but this is not the case. Parents only need to answer their children’s concerns and questions about whatever is on their minds and teach them different ways to take care of their bodies.

Unfortunately, some parents refuse to enter into these discussions about informing their children due to lack of awareness or fear of breaking the taboo and embarrassment, and under the pretext of eliminating shame and shyness, but they do not know that their non-involvement in these discussions causes It ignores their children and exposes them to harm and danger from cyberspace to the outdoors.

Sexual care is important because the information and attitudes acquired during childhood and adolescence affect a person’s entire personal and social life in adulthood. If children and adolescents receive this education, they will make the right decisions in their personal and social lives until adulthood and will not allow anyone to invade their privacy.

1 / Do not leave children in the room with their playmates

When your child is playing with friends or at a party with children, always leave the room door open, and if they close the door, you are kind enough to say that the children are open thanks to the door and sometimes visit them.

Of course, this should not be done in a tangible way that would upset your child, it would be too inconspicuous to pick something up or bring them fruit or snacks.

This type of care prevents some children from behaving in a way that leads to inappropriate sexual behavior with other children away from their parents’ eyes.

2 / Teach children that no one has the right to see their private parts

Between the ages of 5 and 7, children love games like Doctor Games out of sexual curiosity. If you grab their wrists during this game, do not react strongly to them thinking they did something wrong or to make them more curious and repeat it twice in secret, try to give them the necessary knowledge and training about their body. .

Remind them of the sexual differences between a girl and a boy and explain to them that everyone’s body is their own and that no one else should see it, especially teach them private organs such as the penis that no one has the right to see or touch. No, and if anyone does, let their parents know right away.

Some children hide the misbehavior of others for fear of their parents’ reactions, and God knows what will happen to these children in the future. So try to explain these things to the children very simply so that they are aware, leaving aside unnecessary confrontations.

Teach your child that he or she should not accept a gift, ride in a car, or show off private parts of his or her body without your permission. It used to be the case that children were taught not to accept gifts from anyone, especially if that person was a stranger, but you should also teach that even a distant relative, or someone who pretends to be a friend of a parent. But he does things that the child understands, these things are secret, inform the parents quickly.

3 / Teach children the difference between confidentiality and informing abnormalities

Teach your child the good secret is the secret that makes you happy, like buying a gift and the bad secret is the secret that upsets you and you should not keep the bad secret and you must tell it to us.

Some abusive people may do things and tell the child that this should remain a secret between us and the child thinks that he should not tell it to anyone while you have to teach the difference to the children.

Be careful not to intimidate, pessimize, or tell your child about bad things, as the child can be hurt as much as the sexual abuse. So you do not need to explain things, you just need to have the right information for him.

4 / Inform children about suspicious behaviors

Teach your children to react and inform parents if they see such cases:

– If someone showed you his private body.

-If someone wants to look at your body for no reason.

-If someone wants to touch your private organs or tells you to touch their private organs.

– When someone older than you asks you to do something you do not want to do.

When you are in a situation where you feel uncomfortable or have a strange feeling inside you and someone tells you to keep a secret behavior.
