So buckle up, because you don't want to miss this!

At what age should you educate your kids?

The answer to this question varies widely, but fundamentally, proper sex education is an ongoing process and ideally should not be a one-time, serious conversation.

It's best to talk to your kids about topics like sexual consent, pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases and puberty before the age of 10.

The topic of contraception is especially important at this time, because your children need your support. Talk to them about the different hormonal or hormone-free contraceptive methods for women and men.

This way, you can prepare them for the years and experiences ahead and make sure they can make good choices and protect themselves.

The best way to educate children and teens.

The best way is to have open, age-appropriate conversations where your kids can ask you any questions they have. This can happen completely casually in everyday life.

If you find it difficult to talk about such topics, or if you just want to be well prepared, there are many different books, brochures, and videos on the topics.

By the way, very few schools talk about condom sizes.

That's why it's absolutely necessary that you as a parent talk to boys AND girls about it, maybe even make the school aware that there are different sizes.

Which condoms to buy for the kids?

Finding the right condoms for teens is difficult because the penis in 12, 13 or even 14 year olds is often not fully grown yet. Depending on when puberty starts and how many growth hormones are in the body, the penis can grow for up to 6 years.

This means it can take until the age of 18, 19 or 20 for it to reach its full size.

Because of this, standard condoms that are size 52 or 53 will often not fit, slip off easily, or be too tight. This makes sexual intercourse unsafe and uncomfortable.

Additionally, there is the problem that a previously fitting condom can become too small over time as the penis continues to grow. This again makes sex unsafe because condoms that are too small burst more easily, are uncomfortable, and can interfere with erection. This in turn increases the likelihood of unprotected intercourse.

Condoms in small and large sizes

For these reasons, it is especially important for children and teenagers to determine the right condom size and to use condoms that virtually grow with them.

Perhaps after measuring the condom size, it turns out that a size 47 or 49 condom fits perfectly at the beginning. After a few months or years, however, the size may start to pinch and become uncomfortable.

Then, as with buying shoes, it's time to re-measure, re-determine the width or circumference and switch to a new condom size.

By the way, the length of the penis or foreskin does not matter when buying a condom. It's perfectly OK if the condom isn't unrolled all the way or doesn't cover the penis completely, as long as the width or circumference is right.
