In addition, fathers should advise their sons that contraception is also a man’s business.
Protection of minors in the media sector
The Youth Protection Act also regulates how young people are allowed to deal with certain media. This applies to cinema films and videos as well as computer and video games, insofar as these are available in the form of so-called carrier media (i.e. on CD, DVD, video cassette). The law differentiates between media that impair the development of children and young people and those that can endanger their development. The situation is different with radio, television and online media (e.g. the Internet). This area is regulated by the State Treaty on Youth Media Protection (JMStV).

"How do babies get into the womb?" "Mom, how does contraception work?" – Depending on their age, children and young people deal with different questions about sexuality. Parents are often unsure when the time is right for sex education and how much detail they should go into. In the interview, Dr. Sabine Thor-Wiedemann, author of several educational books such as "Love, sex & Co: The educational book for young people" and "Where am I from? My first educational book" Parents’ most pressing questions about sexual education.

How does education work with children and adolescents today?
Thor-Wiedemann: Up until the seventies, the education did not take place until puberty. Today pregnancy and childbirth are already discussed in kindergarten. Parents often have difficulty addressing issues related to sexuality. They like to leave the clarification to the teachers. Children and adolescents do not only get their education through school lessons, but also through conversations with their peers. And this is where misinformation often creeps in.
Should I actively provide information or wait for relevant questions from my child?
Thor-Wiedemann: That also depends on the age of the child. In preschool age, parents should wait until the relevant questions come from their offspring. In no case should mothers and fathers force their children on topics for which they are not yet ready. Around the third or fourth grade, it is good if children get information about what to expect at puberty. With them and with those who are already pubescent, opportunities for informal conversation should be used. Even if parents think that their son or daughter has already been informed, specific questions show that not everything has been properly understood, for example with regard to contraception. For all age groups, educational books are good conversation starters. After all, it is easier to talk to a child about a book than to ask over Sunday breakfast: "What do you know about sex".
What would such favorable opportunities for education be?
Thor-Wiedemann: Parents should pay attention to how much interest their child shows. At the latest when the child asks: "How does the baby get in and out?" the time has come for a conversation. In the case of adolescents, for example, discussions about contraception in the event of unwanted pregnancies with the adolescent’s circle of friends are an option. But newspapers and television programs also address issues such as AIDS and abortion. For example, while watching TV together, parents could check whether the young person has any knowledge and whether he has questions on his mind.
Who is responsible for clarification?
Thor-Wiedemann: Ideally, both parents should endeavor to successfully educate their child. Parents have an important role to play in education. In reality, this is often done by mothers. Especially with girls, the mother is the most important contact person, for example when they have their first menstruation. In boys, fathers should act as role models: they should instill in their sons a sense of partnership responsibility. Ideally, the father also sensitizes the adolescent to the physical and verbal signals from girls that have to be observed during sex. In addition, fathers should tell their sons that contraception is a man’s job too.
If parents are embarrassed to talk about sexuality with their child, how can they overcome this feeling?
Thor-Wiedemann: If parents are uncomfortable talking to their child about sexuality, books or films that deal with the subject on a factual level can serve as a basis for discussion. When choosing media, adults should pay attention to how the topic is being treated and what language is being used. In my opinion, in addition to the classic educational books, the information materials from pro familia, which are designed for different age groups, are recommended for the entire family to read. The Federal Center for Health Education also has suitable brochures that specifically address the specific needs of boys and girls.
Bombarding spiders have a special technique to repel enemies. They hurl so-called stinging hairs at the attacker, which – depending on the sensitivity of the other person – can cause redness, itching and burning.
