Sex education for children needs to be started early and in a timely manner. We need to find "teachable moments" in life at any time to influence them subtly. But it is never too late to start.

Let children learn to say the correct names of sexual organs from an early age. If problems related to sexual organs occur, children can express them accurately so that effective rescue measures can be taken in time.

Understand the difference between sexual content for children and adult content, encourage children to ask questions, and listen carefully to what they say;

It is normal to feel uncomfortable, and it is okay not to know. The key is to respond positively and let your child feel that you are willing to discuss sex with him or her and that you are trustworthy in this regard.
