Should we let our children have a healthy sex life or masturbation? Should we teach or show them?

Question

Well, I think it's better if children nowadys know about masturbation and sex from their parent.... but how?
Should we encourage them to have sex and masturbate?
Should we show them how?

Answer 1

How old are these children? Yes, explaining about sex and masturbation is good, but their age must be taken into consideration. I think we all want our children to have healthy sex lives, but there is such a thing as going too far. (Showing them how). I don't think that they need encouragement. I'm sure that they will develop a sex drive on their own. Everyone has their own level of libido, so I don't think you'll know what theirs is. Discussing these things is important, but don't make them feel as if sex is the be all and end all of their existence. There is so much more to life than that. By the way, while you are teaching these things make sure that safe sex and protection from unwanted pregnancy is discussed as well. Enjoyment of sex is great, but it doesn't help if it ruins your life or ends it.

Answer 2

I think that is commonly referred to as "the talk".

I think that you should never discourage or equate shame with masturbation when your child is growing up. I did a report on masturbation in high school and learned quite a bit about it even though I was not exactly an expert on the subject personally.
It is a good cardio workout and relieves sexual tension and tension in general.

I don't think it is necessary to show them how to have sex/masturbate, per say, but defiantly bring up the subject of hygiene and STD's. Those are very important.

Everything else I am sure they will learn on their own.

Answer 3

Haha the idiots have come out in full force. Look they will figure it out on thier own. Dont be stupid. Not to mention that schools teach that nowadays in a way better than parents. Believe me noone wants to hear about sex from thier parents. And the only stuff u should really say that will stick is no sex til ur ready.

Answer 4

This is kind of a tricky question to answer...I think it's important for parents to teach their children about making good decisions when it comes to sex--waiting until their ready, not doing anything they don't feel comfortable doing, making sure they're educated on contraception, STDs, things like that--though I think anything more specific than that may be a bit of a line crosser.
I think it's important for parents and children to have an open dialogue about sex, though I think going into details about what feels good, what works and doesn't, are not necessarily proper communication.

Answer 5

fairly the different regrettably in view which you assert sin all you like and then ask forgiveness so which you're able to do all of it back! analyze shows that the reason human beings conflict with emotion to discover equitable suggestions is pinpointed the area of the ideas stated as the insular cortex, or insula, that's additionally the seat of emotional reactions. the actuality that the ideas has this way of physically powerful reaction to unfairness shows that sensing unfairness is a hassle-free developed potential. The emotional reaction to unfairness pushes human beings from extreme inequity and drives them to be honest. This commentary shows our hassle-free impulse to be honest isn't a complicated element that we learn. It as a result totally illustrates that each physique human beings have morals controlled with the aid of the ideas and that Christians are fullyyt incorrect to objective and declare morals as their very own!!!! yet Christians chanced on a fashion around it! government data prepare that Christians are hugely over represented in prisons for sexual, violent and fraudulent crime on a similar time as twelve months on twelve months government figures prepare atheists make up in basic terms 2% of the penitentiary inhabitants! The Catholic Church is paying tens of millions in reimbursement for the intercourse/paedophile crimes of their monks on my own! Christians are hugely over represented interior the divorce courts! Christians invented the assumption of sin and then the thought you will sin, ask forgiveness, get pardoned and initiate up with a sparkling sheet! So no marvel that they are so professional at it fairly is it? A Christian is a guy that feels repentance on Sunday for what he did on Saturday and is going to do on Monday. - Thomas Russell Ybarra

Answer 6

Let them figure that on their own. The thought of my parents encouraging and showing me is pretty scary.

Answer 7

i don't believe you should show them how but you should answer any questions they have for you and don't just say yes or no give them the facts. you should also encourage them not to have sex under age and if they do have sex convince them to use a condom

Answer 8

dont show them how, theres just some things no matter how well intentioned kids dont want their parents doing, let them have access to information, in a form and opratunity with which they feel comfertable, let them know they can talk to you, but i think its easier to be allowed to explore on your own with out feer of getting in trouble. i listened to a sex advice radio show when i was younger, it worked for me

Answer 9

Answer questions that they may have truthfully and fully. Dont lie and dont tell more then they ask. If your not sure of the answer, dont guess, get a book and let them find the answer. But you should never show them yourself, if thats what you mean.

Answer 10

Not sure if I understand this correctly, are you asking us if it ok for mom to teach junior how to have sex or show him how to masturbate? I would suggest you leave him alone and not dwell onn this subject unless he ask you.
