For parents with children, bathing their children becomes a burden every summer. It is already very hot and annoying to have to bathe every day. In addition, it is quite a hard day at work. I want more. If you have time to rest, you don’t want to spend more time bathing your baby. The key is that bathing your baby is still very tiring.
Some parents want to know when they can free their hands and no longer have to bathe their children. Some parents want to know how old their children are out of protection for their children. Parents of the opposite sex should not bathe their children. Have you ever struggled with the answer to this question?
At what age can parents of the opposite sex stop bathing their children?
In fact, many parents have also considered this issue. Different parents have different ideas. Some parents have begun to teach their children to correctly understand gender early. After understanding the differences between men and women, they naturally begin to resist parents of the opposite sex bathing them.
Some parents said that when their children are still young, gender and many other things are very vague, , so there is no need to worry about it so much, and it will be natural. Some mothers will be more concerned about the physical and mental development of their children, especially if the child is a girl, and they will pay more attention to this. When the girl gets older, she will ask the father to stop bathing the child.
Regarding this problem, most of the people who worry are girls, and boys don’t seem to care that much, but in fact, no matter whether they are male or female, or no matter how old the child is, , when the child sends some signals, you have to stop. The behavior of opposite-sex parents bathing their children. What are the signals of
?
When both the child and the parents feel uncomfortable
When the child is still young, there may not be any embarrassment. Just because the child does not have any consciousness and only knows how to play, the parents do not feel any special discomfort. However, when a child feels uncomfortable, begins to avoid intentionally or unintentionally, and even no longer focuses on having fun , but feels uncomfortable with his naked body and does not want to expose his body in front of his parents. Parents can no longer continue to bathe their children.
Children have questions
If the child of the opposite sex cannot help but wonder that his body is different from that of his father or mother when parents of the opposite sex are bathing their children, it is necessary to receive a signal, indicating that the child has begun to develop gender awareness. Seize the opportunity , learn the relevant knowledge about the different body structures of men and women, and then slowly let the children form the habit of bathing independently.
When children reach the age of going to school
After going to school, they will come into contact with more children, and they will also have a sense of curiosity. If gender education cannot be carried out, it can easily lead to wrong guidance for children. Regardless of whether you are a boy or a girl, you must have the awareness to protect yourself. Protecting your own unique physiological organs will be beneficial to your child's physical and mental development.
Attention to parents: After the child is 3 years old, he/she needs to remember that "older daughters avoid their father, and older children avoid their mother".
The meaning of "daughters avoid their fathers when they are older, and sons avoid their mothers when they are older" actually means that after the child is 3 years old, if there is a girl in the family, the father should consciously avoid his daughter in some behaviors, and the daughter also needs to consciously avoid her father. Similarly, The same goes for those who have sons at home, and mothers should avoid them accordingly.
Especially in some matters, such as changing clothes and going to the toilet, and taking a bath. Although the above does not say how old the child is, parents of the opposite sex cannot bathe their children, but one of the signals is that when the child reaches school age, parents of the opposite sex should not Bathing a child is also equivalent to after the age of 3, because after the age of 3, he needs to go to kindergarten.
Going to the toilet and changing clothes are relatively common things. Some parents may be negligent and think that nothing will happen to their children when they are still young. It is not too late to avoid them until they are older. If you want your children to have For correct gender distinction, children should consciously avoid children after the age of 3 years old, so that children can have gender awareness.
Some parents also said that avoiding children early can easily mislead the children, that is, they may develop peeping behavior in the future. This is indeed something that needs attention. It depends on how parents correctly gender their children. After education, if you just avoid it blindly, the child may develop more desire to explore and make wrong inducements.
Regarding children’s gender education, we should start from three aspects:
First, family education
In family education, both parents should maintain consistency, and gender education should be conducted in a life-oriented or interesting way, and should not be too tough. To educate, secondly, the family relationship between parents must be harmonious, and family roles must also be reflected in equality and fairness, so that children can have a good gender awareness from an early age.
Secondly, school education
teachers can educate from daily behaviors, and starting from the selection of teachers, mainly female teachers, diversified education from the image, and female teachers are more careful and considerate, and children are more Like female teachers, also. Coupled with joint education between parents and schools, the effect will be even more prominent.
Third, social media education
Social media includes electronic products and books. Both methods can work hard on character creation, and the image also needs to be vivid. It would be better if it can be more interesting. In addition to multi-faceted education It is more conducive for children to form a good gender awareness.
Regarding the issue of bathing children by opposite-sex parents, I believe that modern people’s thinking has changed a lot, and most families can do a good job. Of course, there are some parents who are more fixed-minded and paranoid. It doesn't matter how big it is.
