You come out from under your arm;
You found it in the garbage;
You are picked out from the rice pile;
Even, you fished it out of the cesspit, so embarrassing!
Looking back at these answers, I can't help laughing!
These answers are typical of the older generation in China.
Relatively conservative, deliberately avoided!
In foreign countries, parents usually answer this question:
You are a gift from God;
Mom has an egg in her stomach. You were hatched by her like a chicken.
Mom is like an appliance, and dad is an outlet. After charging your mother, you will be there.
Compared with China's response, there are more foreign responses.
Innovative and bold
Some!
On the question of unification, when a 4-year-old child asks such a question, I personally think that at the age of 4, he can already understand the meaning of many words, and can understand some, but not fully.
So mom can answer like this
Seed theory:
Dad planted a seed in his mother's stomach. With the passage of time, the seed germinated and grew into a baby, and then the baby was born from his stomach!
Of course, if the child asks in more detail, the mother can explain it according to the child's age.
On this issue, some parents find it a bit difficult to talk about it, so they will take an evasive attitude, but parents should know that children are very curious.

For children around 4 years old, it is necessary to impart knowledge and attitude education at the same time, and parents should actively educate their children about the importance of privacy.
Tell the children that we only talk about this problem at home, because it is private. If we talk about this problem outside, it is disrespectful and should be avoided.
Let same-sex parents answer.
If it is a boy's question, let the father answer it. If it is a girl's question, let the mother answer it, so as to avoid some parents' unnatural answers and make the baby more convinced.
Avoid old people answering questions for children and say hello in advance.
Sometimes the old and new views of early education are in conflict. In order to teach early education more scientifically, it is necessary to say hello to grandparents in advance, so as not to contradict parents' answers, so as not to make children feel at a loss.
