Scientists learned when they learned a conversation with children about puberty 13:59

Most parents think that talking to children about puberty is important, but they don’t always know when and how to start this conversation. According to the results of the national study conducted by the CS Mott Children’s Hospital, one of the main challenges for parents is the question of whether it is necessary to talk about the choice of age and sex to discuss changes in the body. Reporting this Michigan University (UM).

Parents were almost equally divided into their views: some believe that the conversation should start up to ten years, others – then. However, experts emphasize: the sooner the communication starts, the easier it is to perceive the changes with them. As Sarah Clark stated that the questionnaire of the questionnaire states, many parents can be seen to be very small for such conversations, but in practice it turns out that children already ask questions or show symptoms of the first growth. If parents do not open the door for such discussions, children begin to look for information on the Internet, television or with peers.

The study showed that approximately half of the parents were trying to talk about puberty in advance, and the other part was talking to children only on their initiatives. Some even avoid this issue. Among the causes of this behavior are shame, uncertainty, fear of saying something wrong. In addition, some of the parents face that children do not want to discuss such problems or look too small to understand them.

Many parents convey their growth experiences with their children. For this reason, almost half of them were divided into the child how they passed from Pebertat, but less than one third received enough information from their parents, and the third did not speak in childhood. If the issue of physical changes in the family is perceived as strange or taboo, these modern conversations can complicate.

Parents doubt how and when to discuss sex and reproduction. According to Clark, it is worth starting with a simple explanation in which the physical and emotional changes occurring are normal and that talking about sex as the child gets older.

Some parents use books or video materials to help the child understand what is happening, and also use the school curriculum and doctoral visits as a reason for discussion. Approximately half of the parents are confident that they can recognize adolescent symptoms, but many have difficulty understanding exactly what should be paid.

According to Clark, it is important to use any question or manifestation of the child’s interest as an opportunity to start talking or to continue to speak. Adolescence can accompany not only physical, but also emotional changes, and it is particularly important for children to feel the support and opening of parents.
