It's not a taboo

Knowledge is power and it helps to protect us from making mistakes or taking any wrong steps. That’s they it’s better to know more and maybe for that reason it says they never stop learning. I also agree with it. We have teachers, elders and parents to teach us different things according to their roles. The time of adolescence is indeed a sensitive time for both boys and girls but most of them don’t have any idea in the beginning time because nobody discussed it is shared any information related to it.

In the time of adolescence boys and girls go through a lot of changes. Many of them feel guilty, insecure and anxious when it happens, especially for the girls because their physical changes are quite frequent and easily noticeable to them. But it doesn’t mean that boys don’t face any changes but somehow girls face major changes in their body and that’s the reason I especially mentioned girls. All of those information’s are the part of sex education and parents should bring the topic in front of their children because children feel shy and don’t dare to open up about such a thing.

The bad thing is that in my country as well as in my continent parents also feel shy to bring the topic in front of children and lack of sex education children don’t understand what they are facing and how to deal with it. Some parents think about how to discuss it but because of their shyness it keeps delaying or even if they can give hints, they can’t share the entire information. Some people also think that discussing about the sex education is not something to discuss with children. I guess those people have misconception about sex education. They may think only about the intimate relation when it comes to sex education. I just think it’s time to change their mentality.

Physical and hormonal changes of children during the time of adolescence is very normal and they should at least know the basics of the sex education. If parents give them the information, they won’t feel anxious or worried about the changes and it will give them a sense of security. It also helps children to protect them and do something foolish out of curiosity. There are many changes, they suffer many things because of lack of knowledge as they tried many things for curiosity. It can bring lifetime problems sometimes.

If parents don’t share it, children will learn from different sources and in their digital world those sources are very easy to find and at the same time there are many traps in this digital world. I don’t know why parents are so shy discussing it when everyone needs to go through all of the changes. It’s not a crime at least. What can I say? I just feel that at least mother can discuss share information with the girls and father can share information with boys and in that way, it won’t be too uncomfortable. But if parents’ acts sharing such information is forbidden it’s indeed troublesome.
