Should i teach my brother about s*x?

Question

okay, when i was 6 i learned a little about s*x in school and i have a 7 year old brother who tells me everything. he knows that s*x is bad but doesn't know how it is done or what happens. my parents don't give "talks." should i teach my brother about it? if i don't teach him he will find out around school or something anyways. i just thought it would be better to hear it from me and so he doesn't feel embarrassed when people tell him funny stories about it and he has to ask what it is.

(7 years sounds young but think about it. how old were u?)

Answer 1

TELL HIM TO SIT DOWN POP IN A PORNO THEN LEAVE THE ROOM WHEN ITS OVER TELL HIM THATS s*x AND THAT HE SHOULNT DO THAT TILL HES MARRIED

Answer 2

It's seriously not your place to teach unless he asks!!

Answer 3

It is never to young to start, but you don't have to go into great detail at this age.

Answer 4

not when he is 7.

maybe 10 or 11 if you must.

he will learn from his buddies soon enough....trust me.

Answer 5

well I can tell you at seven years old I was not thinking about s*x nor were my friends different time different age i guess. I would only talk to him if he asked me a question about it or if I knew for sure someone was saying things to him. Let him be a kid for as long as he can.  

Answer 6

okay. Well when i was 6 my fren told me about s*x but now i know that what she told me was not really s*x. lol

but i was so young that it made me think of people or parents (mommy's and daddy's) in different ways. and when ur that young i don't think you should have to worry about that.

my brother is 7 and is constantly hearing that in movie's and tv. and decides to say it. and instead of explaining what that really is i just tell him not to say that.

he says "is it a bad word"...

and i say "no. but it's not a good word, so don't say it."

we usually just leave it at that.

and if he comes back to the subject saying "well what is it, or what does it mean.."

just tell him you'll tell him when he's older.

that's what works for me and my parents.

and if your parents don't give "talks" then wait till his school health class provide's him with that information.

Please take my addvice into consideration.

for me.. knowing that at a young age made me think of things that i wasn't comfortable with, and made me very afriad to confront my parents with any questions i had.

and really if all else fails.. tell him it is a bad word/bad thing.

we both know it's not but like i said, he's so young :)

let him enjoy that. he'll know the truth one day and it will benefit him.

Hope this helps and everything goes well :)

P.S.-

If he does hear it from school... make sure you reasure him it's okay not to be emmbarassed. an then maybe if the time is right explain :)

Answer 7

No I think he should ask your dad about it. Or a school counselor or school nurse or someone else. Besides he's too young.

Answer 8

what grade is he in,teach him in about 5th grade then h**l understand it  

Answer 9

Well nobody ever taught me cuz i learned myself so i think  you shud be the one who teaches him but when he is about 10 then you are good becuz he wont learn that much so at 10 is good

Answer 10

if you do tell him dont talk about the bad parts

Answer 11

I dont think YOU should be the person to tell him EVEN if your parents dont

Answer 12

no you really shouldnt.  

Answer 13

uhhhmmm...

i think you should just let him know it's not a bad thing.

Answer 14

i think hes too young to fully understand.. its not ur job to teach him.. let him learn from either ur parents or school. and then if he has questions you can answer them

Answer 15

tell him somthing basic n not too much! (or else he will increase the story n start to think nonsense!

Answer 16

he will learn on his own trust me

and learning about s*x from your SISTER!

is just wrong

it brings a really bad vibe

Answer 17

i was five

my sister told me

she is four years older then me

Answer 18

nooo. thats way to young and acward.

maybe give him a book WITH NO PICTURES .

and maybe later his friends are gonna tell him .

hahah =]

Answer 19

do NOT talk to him, Just let him know that if he wants to talk about anything anytime about life or school, you will be there for him.  

Answer 20

i wasn't at least 11 until I knew about it

you really shouldn't tell him

Answer 21

yes i think you should i come from a older family when i was born my oldest brother was 22 I'm 25 now you do the math i have three older brothers that told me every thing and i did well because of it and since 13 year old girls are getting knocked up save him the trouble of being a dad b4 hes ready

Answer 22

my parents dont give talks either and my lil bro was the same way at that age....now hes 13 and know more than any 13 year old kid should lol.....believe me, he will learn, save urself the trouble :)

Answer 23

If your parents aren't doing it then yes but you take small steps, tell him the difference between a v****a and a p***s various things like that.

To find info on what is appropriate for his age all you have to do is Google

"talking about s*x to kids"

I was probably 6 or 7 when my cousins started talking to me about it and I happy that they did because s*x ed in school doesn't teach you much, but anyways as I said what you teach him has to be appropriate for his age.  

Answer 24

just let society teach him

Answer 25

i say no.

7 is young.

wait like 2 years

Answer 26

LOL i saw the movie american pie, and was pretty confused about what s*x was. you should tell him cleary what it is, so he wont have the wrong idea about it.

Answer 27

Seven IS too young! I was in my teens before I knew and I am normal enough, its not your business, if he comes to you when he is 15 then, yes answer his questions but for now just let him be a child.

How old are you by the way?

Answer 28

sure why not

Answer 29

Just tell him in words he can understand and feel comfortable with. There really is no age limit so long as it's appropriate, at the right time and in words the person can understand and is comfortable with.

In the long run this will prevent him from learning false information from unwanted sources.

Answer 30

Answer 31
