Has your little girl ever seen a boy pee? Has your son ever seen a girl pee? If they started asking questions, how did you address them?

My daughter has taken many baths with her 2 boy cousins when they stay the night, she used to pull at their wee wees but she doesn't anymore and she doesn't ask questions either.

Unless someone makes a big deal about if the child saw another child pee neither child will think anything about it. If they ask you why there is difference just explain to them honestly what they are curious about and not go into details of anything beyond what their question was. . Just never make the difference in the female and male bodies seem nasty. If you teach them with the attitude like it is no big deal and thats just the way things are and that all girls are the same and all boys are the same because that is the way eaches body must be so that when they are older and ready to have a family they can . I found just letting them in on what they are interested in at the moment was better than trying to lay out the whole story on them in one wack. Like why explain why women have breasts if they didnt even ask why.And when they do just be honest and tell them because thats how women were meant to feed their babies just like any mommy does. Like I told my boys before there were stores how else would a tiny baby eat just like when our female dog had her puppies , if she wasnt able to have breast to feed them they would starve. And always give them respect and answer them truthfully for the questions they do come to you with. If they grow up having confidence in being able to talk to you about anything you will have far less trouble when they are teens. Children should never feel ashamed of thier bodies or afraid to discuss things that deal with thier bodies with thier parents. You should always be the first person that they think of when they have a question. My sons are 28 and 30 today and still talk to me about anything and everything.
Adults are who make children think that thier bodies are something dirty and should be ashamed of and thats why their are so many perverts. When children are around 2 and 3 they can run around naked and not have acare in the world and dont even notice or care about the differences but then adults start putting it in their minds how nasty they are and to put some clothes on, The bad thing with that kind of mentality can be proven by the countries who keep the women covered from head to toe. They do so because the men grow up thinking all kinds of wierd things about the female body and cant be trusted in seeing it. If they grew up thinking it was no big deal they wouldnt have to worry about other men thinking like a pervert when seeing another mans wife and they wouldnt be so crazy either.

In as few words as possible. Children are often satisfied with the simplest of answers, girls sit down and boys stand up. If boys sit down to pee it goes all over the wall, their pee pee aim sucks. If you want to be anatomically correct get a book that shows the correct parts and explain it that way. Here is a web site that might help. Good luck.

Now a days unless your child is an only child with no cousins, close friends etc its very likely they will see the other gender urinate at some point before toilet trainings is completed but if not... Girls sit down to tinkle, boys stand up and point (don't forget to teach them to lift the seat).

Simple--just be honest. A female sits down to pee because she doesn't have the same thing a boy has. A boy stands up to pee because it's funner that way. I tell my oldest son to remember to put the toilet seat back down so Mommy doesn't drown and always lift the toilet seat up so Mommy doesn't get nasty.

Simple to explain, I have two boys one 6year old and other 8 year old both of them enjoy by crossing their urine waves and they know very well that boys pass urine by standing in front of urinal where as they have learned in their school that girls toilets are different.The girls toilets do not have urinals like boys.My sons know that their cousin-sisters pass their urine by siting in slit or commode.suppose that, they don't know how girls pass their urine I will tell them how our religion has taught them to pass the urine in right way so that they do not be nonspiritual during this act. The boys should also take water and wash their penis after passing the urine. This is the right manner to urinate.

I have always taught my children that any question they ask will be answered in a truthful and caring way....just tell it like it is.
Use the real name for things, (not yaa yaas and who whos) and let them ask more questions as they are interested. I really think that this will also keep the lines of communication open so that as teens they know that they can ask sex questions and get the real answers from you and not the wrong ones from kids at school.

Keep it simple. "Girls sit down to pee because they are girls and boys stand up because they are boys." I am assuming this is a young child. They just want an answer. Give that one and they will be satisfied. If they don't bring it up again, I wouln't even say that.

We are accustomed not to answer this question. It is a difficult situation which we try to avoid. But if we are forced to answer at any moment, then we have to explain how the opposite sex animals do and ask them to read a book which explains the subject. I find this is the only way.

Well my son went to the bathroom with me every single time when he started walking.. so he knew how I peed... But when we started potty training him we would let him go to the bathroom with Daddy and he would show him how boy's pee. So the question never came up....

Now when it comes to the WHY they do that part.. we haven't made it that far yet..
