Question

Explain the reasons that you feel are behind such embarrassment amongst some parents to freely discuss such issues with their growing children.

Answer 1

The phenomenon of sexual reproduction in humans is considered to be a critical topic for discussion. The parents feel awkward in talking with their growing children about the menstrual cycle, sexuality, and reproduction. In humans, this is considered as a private topic and so the parents which are not much educated feel embarrassed to talk about this. The children do not much about this topic and since they are inhibited from getting this knowledge, move on wrong tracks and go astray to explore about this.
