Children need to hear our values about relationships and sexuality. Without our guidance, they might miss out on crucial, accurate information. We owe it to our children to talk about healthy relationships and sexuality. If we don’t talk about healthy relationships and sexuality with them they will likely face several risks: They might receive inaccurate or misleading information from peers, media, or the internet. They could miss out on important, factual information altogether They won't learn about your beliefs and values regarding relationships and sexuality. This gap can lead to confusion about what is expected or considered healthy behavior. They might absorb harmful or fear-based messages that can affect their self-esteem and behavior. Such messages can lead to anxiety and misconceptions about sexuality and relationships. Lack of proper education can result in unsafe sexual practices, increasing the risk of sexually transmitted infections and unplanned pregnancies. Without understanding consent and boundaries, they are more vulnerable to abuse. They may struggle with forming and maintaining healthy relationships. This can lead to feelings of isolation and loneliness. Understanding these risks highlights the importance of having open, honest, and age-appropriate conversations with children about healthy relationships and sexuality. #sexuality #sexeducation #relationships #parenting #empowertoprevent Ibiyemi's ink 🔏 worthywrite

The phenomenon of “Missing Women” - that in some cultures there are fewer women than expected – has been much debated since it was highlighted by Amartya Sen in a seminal paper in 1992. Globally, the natural sex ratio at birth (SRB) is 1.05, however, sex ratios of 1.20 or even 1.30 have been observed in some countries such as China, South Asia, or the Middle East. While Pakistan’s SRB is 1.06, this may hide actual son preference in selected population groups. The study explored sex preference and resulting contraceptive usage, in an informal settlement in Rawalpindi. We ask, does contraceptive use go up or down if the last child is a boy?
