How do Americans educate their children about sex?

1. Children's sex education does not need to specify parents.

The child has sexual doubts. If it is a boy, mother will say, "Go and tell your father." This old-fashioned concept is completely unnecessary. As long as parents have a correct understanding of sex, mothers can talk to their sons and fathers can talk to their daughters. In fact, it is the best arrangement for parents to educate their children together, because when discussing sex and love, parents are the closest model of love and being loved.

2. Informal conversation about sex

Talking about sex seriously is doomed to failure. We should find opportunities to talk more about sex-related issues. It is not difficult to find dozens of sex-related problems in TV programs, movies, newspaper news and magazine articles every day. Dr. Piersa, a famous American sex therapist, reminded that it is important to hit the nail on the head rather than make a long speech when implementing "opportunity education".

3. First of all, emphasize "what can be done"

Don't always emphasize "what can't be done" in front of children. Parents make a list of things they can't do in sex, but the child thinks, "Sounds interesting, why don't I try?" When you say what you can do (such as shaking hands or hugging and kissing), you must say the following two things you can't do at the same time: "Don't get married before" and "Never hurt another person".

4. Parents teach at the same time

The biggest danger of sex education is the differences between parents in sexual morality and sexual thought. You know, children are often the "experts" who are best at using their parents' different opinions. They always have a way to get their parents to support what they want to do or can't do. If the husband and wife are not harmonious, it is difficult for children to get a good education.

5. Sex education is not once in a lifetime.

Don't expect a child to be immune for life after one education, just as repeatedly asking the child to tidy his room can't keep it clean, the reason is the same. But in the constant "nagging" of parents, children will at least understand that parents pay attention to cleanliness. Similarly, they can learn what their parents value from repeated sex education.

In the United States, knowledge about fertility, gender differences and sexual morality has been taught since the first grade of primary school. Junior high school teaches the knowledge of reproductive process, sexual maturity and sexual restraint, while senior high school teaches the knowledge of marriage, family, sexual charm, homosexuality, sexually transmitted diseases, prostitution and sexual perversion, and distributes condoms to students.

In the recent 10 year,13 schools in the United States increased abstinence education, advocated postponing sex until marriage, and told students to practice safe sex. Some schools also provide information about where to get birth control devices or how to use condoms. At present, 32 public schools in 0/4 cities in the United States have set up sex counseling rooms, which are also answered by children, and the contents are confidential to teachers and parents.

Therefore, sex education is actually a very important link, in many organisms, not to mention in today's social system. China needs to be strong, and all countries are making progress.
