There was a child and this child asked her dad about his private place but the dad did not know what to answer her. What should he have answered her?

Children should be taught proper names for all body parts male or female.

Never make a big deal about it.....real matter of faculty answer her question..... we always gave the parts more acceptable names that we wouldn't care if it was suddenly shouted in public... Boys had boos and girls had hahoos. If you make questions a big production kids pick up on it and then it becomes this big event that got mom or dad all weirded out about... Questions happen and they do things that can be shocking but if you handle it as matter of factly as possible and answer then and don't avoid it they go on and you go on to the next thing..... Oh and for those of you that insist they give proper names..... they learn the proper names when they get old enough to need to know the proper names....too much info to soon is not good either.... {experienced parent here}

That boys are different than girls, and instead of having a girl part like she has, he has a boy part. This would also have been a good time to teach her about good touch and bad touch and that the ONLY people who should EVER ask to see her private place is her parents or her doctor.

Math is the downfall of many an in any different case marvelous student. purely get with the aid of it any way you may. You do prefer further education in case you prefer to truly do a stable activity of homeschooling--I homeschooled for 5 years, and that is great, yet problematic. there is not any longer something incorrect with wanting to paintings in a funeral homestead--no longer sufficient people understand the thank you to actual do some thing useful. you're a great help to those that're grieving purely via assembly their needs at such a time. i'd save taking some style of instructions and paintings on the funeral homestead stuff. do no longer evaluate your self on your ultimate pal or all people else. they have their very own lives to respond to for, and you have yours.

I agree with everyone else - the truth. Don't hide it or make her feel ashamed. I taught my daughter the correct terminology for boys and girls private places. I don't want to make her feel ashamed because if, heaven forbid, something were to ever happen, I wouldn't want her to not want to talk about it because she feels ashamed.

I assume you're talking about his penis. He should have identified it for what it is, and explained that it's a male private part, just like she has female private parts.

why would a 4 year old even be thinking about something like that? what's really going on?

be honest, it is his penis and that's that. "why don't I have one?" u answer because boys have them and girls have vaginas.
u dont want to lie about it or make up funny names for the body parts,just be honest, short and sweet
