How can I get information to bring up the subject of human sexually with by 10 yr. son.?
Answer:
Check out the books on the shelf at your local library.
Look them over & decide which ones present info in a way that meets your comfort level.
Read them yourself.and then have him read them.
Does your son have any male role models in his life? Maybe you could ask them to speak with him about the more private male things that your son might not be comfortable asking his mom. You could also bring it up by asking him what he knows. Go to him and say " Son/kids name, I heard that a lot of kids your age know about sex and I was wondering what you have heard and if you have any questions" If you don't know the answer to a question he has don't get flustered...Simply say "That is a really interesting question and as soon as I find the answer I am going to let you know." Then do some research and get back with him. I know lots of parents assume that kids will figure out most things about sex on their own. But think about where kids get the information from-other kids. I don't know about you but I would rather my kids get the straight forward answers from me. So I know they understand that sex isn't a little thing. The questions and information you talk about might make both of you uncomfortable but in the long run it will help you both. Your son will know that you are willing to answers his questions about anything and you will know that he will come to you and not some weird kid on the playground :) Good Luck!
I have a son that is 18 and I am a single mom. Why do u think it's a problem? Boys are so much easier to raise then girls.I didn't start with mine until he was alittle older.It has alot to do with what they watch on t'v.I made sure mine didn't watch certain shows.To be honest.You need to ask him first.Some kids get really embarassed.Just ask him if he has any questions on the human body.Start from there and in a year or two move on.Good luck...
Okay... now is the time to do it... what you're going to tell him is stuff he has already heaard about. It's your job to separate fact from fiction.
Maybe if there is a male figure in his life that he respects more as a peer than a adult figure... have them be present for th ediscussion.
Go to the library... get books with pictures (anatomy pictures, not dirty pictures)... there might even be a eduactional video there.
"And boys are different than females" Ummm yeah they ARE different. Especially between the legs. I suggest starting with a book on childbirth and sitting down and reading it TOGETHER.
at our schools here they teach this in a class they separate the boys and girls and teach them basics give the boys a booklet and deodorant (and used to give condoms but parents complained) and the girls deodorant and tampons links below should help
