We can see that certain teenagers in today's society are virtually experts when it comes to using social media and the internet. Any query can be answered with just a few keystrokes on the keyboard. In reality, contemporary technology has a significant impact on children's personalities and actions. Parents should continue to give their complete attention to children under the age of 18 in my opinion.

One of those who frequently sought my assistance is in my memory. She is a mother to a minor, just like I am. The issue is that she recently saw her daughter engage in indecent action, which doesn't seem typical for a young child like her daughter. Since I had never encountered it with my son, I hardly knew how to react when I found out. But out of kindness, I continued to help my pal come up with a solution with the help of some mothers I also spoke with. It's a good thing we can ask anything because we can remain anonymous. She has always followed his daughter ever since. It's challenging because, if she doesn't figure it out, she'll eventually run into serious issues. Many young girls are still becoming pregnant at an early age, and some of them have been raped.

As my son grew older, I observed that he became increasingly fascinated about everything. Even I am not prepared to respond to his questions sometimes since they are so shocking. I've been known to just state, "Son, you are too young to know the answer, but until you mature sufficiently or at least become 10, I'll consider it okay."

I will quickly Google the appropriate response after he asks it in order to understand a child like him. I get a lot of help with that from social media. I occasionally look at what good parenting is. I still have my moments of nagging, which is typical for parents like myself. But I also discovered how important it is to actively listen to my child. Our bond as mother and child is strengthened in this way.

I also blame the internet at times. Now that he is older and more reactive, I often worry when he interacts with other kids because he sometimes picks up things from them and is extremely sensitive. Every day, I consider the possibility that he may be learning something else from his classmates. But I still have complete faith in his teachers. I often find it difficult to accept the fact that my son is growing older and needs to be aware of these things as well.

For you mommies, how do you handle your children who are too curious and ask too many questions?
