The Media

Most teens and children in the present year are bombarded with sexual content and sexual images in movies, radio, television and magazines. According to studies, media messages from television are considered as the first introduction to the real world of sex. Instead of knowing and learning the significance of being responsible about sex, most teens and children receive mixed messages from romanticized and sexualized characters that are being portrayed in the media. As a parent, it is very important that you talk to them about the things that they see in the media.

Media is all around and this is one of the reasons why it is impossible to block it out. The best way to talk with your child about sex is to join them while they are watching television and at the same time tackle some of the sex scenarios that they encounter. You can also point out some of the advertisements and explain to them the messages that the advertisements want to convey to their viewers. However, you also need to bear in mind that media is not just limited to television. In the recent year, internet has drastically grown as part of the entertainment world and this is recognized as one of the important sources of media that most people view every single day. In connection with this, there are also video games that have sexual themes and this is one of the important things that you need to explain with your child. Furthermore, you can also make use of online resources that will help you to teach your child about their sexuality. You can also guide them while they are using their computers and browse some of the sex education websites that are widely available today.

One great example of online media that your child will encounter is the world of pornography. You must explain to your child that watching pornography is a normal habit, especially for adolescent boys, however you must also discuss with them that pornography has the ability to create expectations about the real world of sex that are usually unrealistic, particularly when it comes to the behavior, desires and appearance of women. You should also point out that emotional intimacy is a great part of sex. Sexuality is a new part of your child’s life that they can learn from and explore but you should also guide them to avoid sexual activities at their early ages.
