My child in 9 years old and he is starting to ask sexual questions and that. What do you tell a 9 year old?

Question

What do you tell him and to what extent?

Answer 1

I started talking to my son about sex when he was little. It is good to be open, of course you have to do it at the level they are at. First start with how babies are made.

Answer 2

at 9 they should have already been told. With the stuff on TV and the music and the way kids talk I'm shocked the child didn't already know. It's best coming from a parent. Just tell them. I found out in the 3rd grade and that was like 30 years ago.

Answer 3

You tell him the truth. If he asks a specific question you answer it. Don't go into detail, unless he asks for more information. If you are open and honest, it will create many years of communication between you two that will possibly keep him clean and straight forever. Kids need to know that you are available to talk about ANYTHING. Also, if you don't answer his questions, he will get the answers from someone else. Do you want to risk him learning the wrong things too early? Good Luck

Answer 4

You need to answers his questions. For he is at the age that he will want to know it all. This is the age that the girls are now starting to get their monthly. So it is big talk at school. With my 2 (no 13y boy and 12 y girl) I answered JUST what they asked. You don't have to go into extreme detail just most of the time we panic and they are not looking for the answers we thought they wanted. Example " How does the baby get into them moms belly?" start with basic like 2 people fall in love have sex and baby is created. He may ask what sex is by must of the time that will satisfy them. (hopefully LOL) There are also books you can get at the library that you can sit and read with the kids to teach them. Sorry I can not remember what they are called. But, they are made into stories at kids levels to understand sex and what their bodies will go Thur during the next several years
Good Luck Hang in there it is normal at this age

Answer 5

i asked the same thing a few weeks ago cause my 9 year old son is doing the same thing. u just have to b truthfull but dont go into alot of detail, no sex pics, videos or drawings or anything lol. my husband i tell our son that when a man and women love each other they make babies. how does the baby get there, by God. we r waiting a few more years for the sex talk. about 11 would b good.

Answer 6

sure. A 9-year previous certainly needs to renowned the elementary "birds and bees" data. a stable rule of thumb is to allow her sense soft approximately asking something, and then answering the questions she asks -- she'll not press previous what she needs to renowned. Ther are too many 10 year olds already experimenting with intercourse, and an excellent style of females get their sessions at 10 or 11. The greater she knows from you, the fewer she'll attempt to check oin her very own -- and gaining wisdom of on her very own is what gets her interior the main issue.

Answer 7

please tell the truth... how everything changes on boys&girls what girls go thru and boys thier bodies ... If he ask how it's done only you know the maturity of the child and explain in a vague way adults fit into each other like jig saw puzzles...... I'm sure you can do it correctly or the look it up at public library they have books or next examination at the pediatrician they can help agreat deal good luck

Answer 8

Tell him straight in a nice way that sex is just normal for married couple but it is a sin for unmarried couple and risky to acquire diseases or aids!Tell him also that sex must be done in a proper time,proper place,exact age or with the right person he is going to marryn someday because pre marital sex is a big sin!

Answer 9

tell the truth , knowledge is power if you want him to make smart choices then arm him, kids are having sex so early now days it's scary (youngest mother now is 11 in england) so buy an anatomy book and so him pictures, explain how the body works and let him know now how you feel about sex i.e. only married adults sould have it.

Answer 10

I think it really depends on the maturity of the child.Then of course it also depends on what you want him to know.When my children asks questions I tell the truth but just don't go into alot of detail.I would rather tell them than they learn all sorts of stupid stuff elsewhere.
