Parents' Discussion Room

hmmmmm yeah i think it should be included in parenting..

[Ms.Beau]

oh yes i believe *** education should start at home. (i mean proper *** education)

we have this children's *** education book in our preschool and it's so funny it has cartoon illustrations of the mom and dad naked and also that of them having ***! (frontal nudity jud ha no leaves covering the genitals ...then *** position is missionary..at least kana ra hahah). it is very informative indeed--from the reason why mom and dad want to "get really close to each other" to the "nice and tingly feeling" to the sperm-meets-egg thingy to conception to birth!

but no, we don't make the book available to kids as in right there in the bookshelf. we just make ourselves ready IF AND WHEN the child asks coz that's an indication that she/he is ready for such information. so i guess that's a tip for parents. if the child asks, we should not brush him off. sooner or later he will get the info he needs, might as well make sure he gets the correct info, right?

there's also an angle we considered and that's the VALUES part. the book doesn't really emphasize it, perhaps leaving it open to religious differences. in our case (as in me and the staff at our small preschool), we have agreed that a context should be provided which is "a loving relationship, specifically marriage". (this is the safest we can think of!). this is to provide boundaries for *** coz right, children might just get very curious and try it out (toink!), so as early as possible we try to make them aware that such a thing is special and there's a right time and right place for it.

and one more tip diay: when giving answers, there's no need really to be graphic and detailed about it. simple question, simple answer. children have limited understanding and it would not be good to overwhelm them with lots of details.

agree. it will be better if we are able to discuss this matter with our children but parents should be capable as wel. parents should be just as comfortable with the topic as well so we can teach our children the virtues instead of the malice...thanks ms beau for the good pointers....

Akong daughter they already have *** and puberty class, with parent's permission slip from the teacher na its okay for them to take the class or not and they had that in 6th grade. At that age i think its important that parents let the kid understand puberty stage first and what goes on in their bodies and emotional changes they can expect during puberty then later on na ang ***. I do encourage open communication about these things in my home so if and when they need to talk to me about it, they can always come to me without hesitation rather than them learning it from outside and from friends.

Is it good to let your child play or either intruduce PC games at his/her early age (7-10 y.o.)?

What could be the advantages and disadvantages?

Some say it could help build and develop the childs mind.

I don't know if that's totally true.

What do you think guys?

my 9 yr old started playing pc games at 3, i stilll have some of his reader rabbit collection...hehe. he had a playstation console at 4........the thing is moderation and discipline. allow your kids to play it but not all day, don't use it as a babysitter either. too much time in the tube is not healthy for them. i only allow him 2 hrs a day and sometimes an hr more as a reward of something he did good and that 2 hrs include watching tv. if he goes beyond the hours alllowed, he will lose 30 minutes of each five minutes the next day. so he's very careful about that. choose games that are suitable for their age. there are games that actually help them learn.

Thanx evs. Thats a nice motivation. Maybe i'll apply that too soon. :mrgreen:

not a parent yet but i imagine that it would be an akward situation once kids start asking questions about ***..in my case we were not taught until grade six..

eventually, people learn it through media..and it's instinct...animals were not even taught.

i just wish my (future) kids won't ask me about it.
