Abstract

The session "Health Education" explores the development of the human body and its needs from early stages to maturity. In the first part of the session, parents will identify a set of acceptable and effective nutritional standards for both adults and children. They will discuss the dimensions of health and the importance of teaching hygiene standards around children. Emphasis will also be placed on the concept of mental health, highlighting the value of relaxation through free time, rest, and active periods. The second part of the session will focus on the importance of sexual education. Sexual education is not merely a lesson on contraception or preventing sexually transmitted diseases. It also involves transmitting family values and serves as a lesson in communication, decision-making, and responsibility. During this portion, parents will explore methods for discussing this topic with their children

This module is part of the materials dedicated to the training of parental educators.
