This week's subject is "What is a
woman," and it's something that irritates me quite a bit. Since I am the mother of two daughters, I know they will undoubtedly have questions about why it took me so long to write this.
Obviously,as a single mother, there won't be a simple response to this question because so much depends on the parents' morality, the setting, and the circumstances. Personally, I would attribute it to a succession of rational stages that might help you decide on the best course of action.
Given the inherent relationship between gender and sex, this conversation may also turn to sex-related topics.
🔸: How educated and tech-savvy is your child?
If there is one thing I am certain of, it is that by the time I reached second grade, I had discovered for myself where babies come from. God knows I didn't understand the subtleties, but it should be relatively evident that man + woman Equals kid.
Given how simple it is to understand sex, isn't it desirable to be ahead of the gender and sex curves? At least in this situation, you can influence the story they hear. For instance, there are currently rallies concerning LGBT issues in Malaysia, and they are widely covered in social media.
Do you really want kids to learn that way? by vile, furious and angry people? I for one would not!
🔸: Is it preferable to raise a child who is adequately protected or one who is able to defend themselves?
Your child will at some point in their life start to wonder what gender they are. They will spend some time examining their connections with others, their body, and sex. Questions are certain to arise in light of that. Imagine how much better prepared we will be if they have a general understanding of how things operate.
If you were the one who initially told them, can you picture how significantly more comfortable they would feel speaking with you?
To allow your child guard themselves and give you some peace of mind, you may wish to bring up inappropriate sexual and other issues by bringing up the subject early.
🔸: Don't you think you've spent enough time educating your children not to lie?
Being honest is the key to success in the end. Telling your kids lies is almost never beneficial. They do call you on nonsense, and they do have the internet!
They will receive responses if you provide them with sincere explanations that address their inquiries without being overly precise, and you will eventually be able to share them with the rest of the globe.
Because, let's confront it, we're not terrified of the facts. Is the timing of the responses correct?
The best thing my parents ever did for me was to provide me with honest answers to my queries. It also gave me the confidence to ask more questions in the future since I knew I would get an honest response.
It's ultimately up to us as parents in the digital age. We have instant access to every piece of knowledge and detail. Likewise, our kids finger. If they ever have a comment, just be prepared to provide them with the finest response possible.
I would love to invite Miss
