Tips for Parents

Do allow your child to take sex education courses in school.

You may not agree with everything what is taught or may also not aware of things they teach or you may not aware the way they are teaching…but give them some time so as to come to at a level of standard format of teaching.

Your child can use what he or she learns in school…as his first original source of knowledge.

Do not awkward, make self-conscious, or humiliate your child about their sex education in class.

Do keep the lines of communication open with your child. Let him free all the time to talk to you on the subject.

Do not close the chapter in any manner…as this sensitive and vast subject needs periodic discussions…like question and answer sessions.

Do not think that what your child learns about sex at school is enough. It is not. It is continuous education process…and as children today are all the time come across with the news related to sexual abuse…sexual scandal and some more related news…which may have bad or negative impression on his mind regarding sex life….and inaccurate sexual images on their mind…can be dangerous as far as his innocent mind is concerned.

Do not neglect the major contribution of the media and their peers. The need is to choose appropriate things or information. So guide your child to accept the right information so as to be on the right track.

Do speak to your child’s school about what they are teaching and the sexual education curriculum is okay…but it should be by an unintentional way in a smooth manner.

You can see the text book but avoid making any comments on it…if you are some opinions talk to concerned teacher.

Do not argue with your child over his opinion…if you think his opinions or conclusions he is making are wrong one…learn as art to change his opinion by a simple method…avoid arguments…

Respect your child’s opinions. Accept the fact that they are growing up and have the ability to have opinions and may be aware of things which you was not expecting.

Do keep in touch with your child’s sex education teacher. Attend school meetings when ever you are invited. Be active participant in discussion.

Tips For Parents:


Tips For Parents:

2.What is our role as Parents - Talking To Your Kids About Sex


SEX EDUCATION

Tip 1: Start Early
Ideally sex education is not provided to kids in a reactionary fashion. Rather, it's given from the beginning in an indirect manner. This means the child has to have a strong sense of identity and an understanding of what his or her values are.
“Parents are going to have sit down and explain their values to their own children. And this needs to start young, before the society influences them,”

Tip 2: Give the child age-appropriate sex education
Starting to teach different topics at the right age is also important. For example, by the age of six or seven, a child must know how to clean him or herself after using the toilet.
At the age of 12 or 13, a parent can introduce the topic of menstruation for girl childSome of the topics to talk about include modesty, decency, conduct and behavior .

Tip 3: Parents should build a good relationship with their kids
Proper sex education can only be given if the correct messages are being sent There has to be openness, not a rigid and dogmatic atmosphere at home.

Tip 4: Be an example
This goes hand in hand with being a role model, which is the best way to teach and transmit values to children. That means not only should children be exposed to a healthy male-female relationship when they see their parents. It also means parents do not engage in activities which undermine their views on sexuality.

Tip 5: Get involved with your children's school
Regular participation in such school organizations and activities gives you a voice as a parent to express your views about what's going on in the school system as it affects your child, as well as others' children.

Tip 6: Know the sex education territory
I
t is necessary to find out what is included in the sex education curriculum.

Tip 7: Tell your kids you're available to talk to them about sex
”Main hu na” This is necessary, especially if sex has been a taboo subject in the household for so long. Parents [should] say to their children “I want to be your primary source of information about sex,”
This makes it clear that while your child may be getting information about sex from other sources like television, the movies, school and friends, you are the “authoritative source”.
This is done best when discussed at a younger age, rather than waiting for the teen years when rebelliousness usually kicks in and kids are less likely to listen to parents.

Tip 8: Express your nervousness
It will be hard to talk about sex for many parents. But they should not hide this from their kids. Morris recommends parents say, “If I sound nervous or uncomfortable just bear with me,” in the course of their conversation. This stresses the seriousness of the topic and the importance of what you want to say. The fact that this is so difficult for you, yet you are going forward with it emphasizes your child's need to listen.
