How Can I Help My Son Unlearn This by Iyaebube(op): 1:39pm On Sep 04, 2023
It started last two Sunday at the children's department. They were taught covering of the body as a child of God and ever since that day, my son has not remain the same again on his way of reasoning. My husband n I was all joking about it but it's getting out of hand the way my son is going about it

What he does now is he doesn't allow us especially me to wear skimpy wear at home anymore.whenever I put it on he will be shouting mummy cover your "private part" even my last baby that's not up to 2 was playing with the sleeveless top she was wearing the chest was showing immediately my son started shouting baby cover your private part. The private part he use to shout instead of another word cover your body provoked me to flog him to stop using that word cos he's just 4.

The incident that happened yesterday made us speechless was my family n I went to have a nice time because since that last two Sunday my son haven't stepped out of the house. We decided to have fun yesterday only for my son to screaming mummy see this one she or he is showing there private part. It brought alot of attention to us that we quickly ended what we came out to do.

How do I handle this issue to clear it off his head cos I have spoken n spanked him to stop but this is what he refused to stop saying n is embarrassing. Of all they where thought in Sunday school, why did he chose this one to practically implement?

And u said you've scolded him to stop, and he didn't.

Check your parenting skills.

Maybe he's gonna become a pastor.

Your son is a destiny child. If he can see wrong things at his tender age and correct them then he is not your regular Joe kind of child. He is unique

He was given an half-baked information. That is people should dress modestly by covering up their private parts.

Now, you re-educate him in full what is the essence of that lesson. Tell him what is being referred to as private parts in the body and what parts of the body needs to be covered properly to dress modestly.

Counter the teaching by telling him the correct words to say.

Ask him if he knows the meaning of private part.

Use logic and reasoning to teach him.

My husband doesn't allow scolding or yelling at kid, when I do that in his presence,he gets angry saying he was not trained that way

My mode of dressing is not inappropriate. I'm just 24yrs n that I shouldn't dress like granny to prove anything. My son takes correction to thingsbut we are surprised that he doesn't what to take this correction from us

OP,

You are the PARENT!😕

Ur child should respect your Views more than any Teacher.🙁

Sit him down and tell him 'Please you are Using those words too much.
Don't worry, nothing too bad if Pple's private Parts are NOT fully covered'.

Or you can also meet the Sunday school teacher to talk to your son. 🤔🙂

Check your parenting skills again. You need to work on it.
My son of less than 3yrs was corrected by her mum yesterday in church, he started crying loudly, I looked at him from the altar, ensured our eyes met, and the noise went off.
There are some things he learnt outside that we have to adjust or remove, and we have never find it difficult in handling it
Re: How Can I Help My Son Unlearn This by stonemasonn: 2:59pm On Sep 04, 2023
This where your husband should come in.
At this age, modeling and conditioning should start at home, not from outside.

Your son is a good candidate for extremism and suicide bombing (Just joking) wink
Re: How Can I Help My Son Unlearn This by Omoluabi16(m): 2:59pm On Sep 04, 2023
Early child education is not for everybody. Whether at school or church. Unfortunately, no regulation, we just allow any aunty with O'level or NCE to be teacher
Re: How Can I Help My Son Unlearn This by Kzeex(m): 3:00pm On Sep 04, 2023
Omo I think the more you try to correct the more he remembers those words. I feel you should go meet the Teacher that inculcated that word into his mouth, to help you unlearn that shii from your son

Take him to a swimming lesson or beach. That way,, he will notice that natural need for those type of clothing,
Desensitization technique, is done by repeated exposure to dreaded experience.
The brain is kind of elastic and would relearn when exposed to certain conditions.
As the individual is exposed to these unpleasant stimuli, they gradually adjust and feel comfortable around them.
This is a modified version of the Desensitization therapy for the particular purpose.

Re: How Can I Help My Son Unlearn This by DARLINGTON869(m): 3:02pm On Sep 04, 2023
For goodness sake, I don't see what dat child of God did dat warranted you flogging him.
If the words "private part" disgusts you, then calmly sensitize him on the use of a far less "raw" word.
Many families are out there looking for how to kill porn addiction and sexual immorality amidst their kids; ur child is doing the opposite and you are harsly reprimanding him for practicing a Sunday school teaching undecided
