When children start looking for answers about growing up, the internet may be one of the first places they turn to.
This World Contraception Day, let’s help children grow up informed, confident and comfortable asking questions.
That’s why conversations about puberty, body changes, boundaries and relationships are better started early and built gradually, through simple, honest conversations rather than one big “talk”.
Start with the basics:
• Use the correct names for body parts.
• Explain changes before they happen.
• Talk about respect, kindness and personal boundaries.
• Teach children that they should never keep secrets that make them feel unsafe.
• If you don’t know an answer, say, “Let’s find out together.”
An open conversation today can make it easier for your child to come to you with questions tomorrow.
