Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.
Puberty is frequently seen as a male and female issue, with mom taking care of the girls and dad taking care of the males. When we operate in this way, we are losing a great chance to connect with our children of the opposite gender and set an example for gender roles in marriage. Daughters will gravitate toward males with similar attributes later in life when fathers are interested and present for them, willing to console them, buy them feminine items, and be proud of them for becoming young women.
When moms are actively involved in their sons’ lives and are able to show them compassion, understanding, and support, their sons are more likely to be attracted to women who have these traits in the future. Fathers and mothers each have their own special viewpoints, and security is created when they take an active interest in all aspects of their child’s growth.
Sons are more likely to become supportive spouses when their fathers set a positive example for them by being supportive of their wives and daughters. Being a kind, sensitive, and loving husband and parent is a skill that boys must acquire as they grow up. Increased regard, reverence, and compassion for their moms, sisters, and future brides can result from talking to the males in the house about what it takes for a woman to carry their, children.
Masturbation is common among both males and girls during adolescence. They are having new experiences, questions, and thoughts as their bodies swiftly change. Although we may never truly know because many teenagers are unwilling to answer honestly, it is believed that boys struggle with this more than girls do, and we also know that pornography and sex addiction affect men more severely than women.
Puberty stage
Masturbation is discouraged by many parents as something that should only be done for sexual pleasure, ignoring the reality that there are many other benefits as well. Boys struggle to control their impulses during puberty, and their penis appears to take on a life of its own. This can cause a lot of shame and embarrassment. It is usually better to approach this problem realistically, admit that it is challenging, and provide them with information about the risks associated with a lack of self-control.
Train up a child in the way he should go
We should not shame people for wanting to do activities that make us feel good or that we believe are entertaining; instead, we should emphasize the need for self-control. Our children need to understand that even adults have limits and need to practice self-control in order to be healthy. Because we don’t tell them, many boys would never think that masturbation may result in long-term sexual dysfunction or addiction.
How often do you discuss sex with your teenagers? This includes educating them on the realities of teen sex, its effects on relationships (both romantic and platonic) as well as certain pressures they may be under that you may not be aware of.
