How does masturbation affect sexual power?
There is nothing more distressing to a man who has been promiscuous or has practiced masturbation than to find upon marrying that his sexual 2http://www.kidshealth.org/teen/sexual_health/ powers are worn out and unable to function. He comes to the doctor and begs him to do something about it. But the damage has been done and if the powers return at all, it will be after a long period of chastity.
Remember, the powers of reproduction in both the male and female are limited to a few years and if they are worn out they do not recuperate readily. Furthermore, if youth indulge in sexual intimacies before marriage, they are laying the foundation for future unhappiness. When united later on with a life partner in marriage, they will in one way or another have cause to regret such moral lapses. The most common sequel is impotence.
How to prevent your children from playing with genitals in public?
- Set daily limits: You need to make your children understand that it is a private activity, such as toileting, and can only be performed/ limited to the bedroom or bathroom only.
- Distract them: You must get your child interested in another activity and make them busy with their hands.
- Reduce the amount of hugging, cuddling and parental affection you show to your child, that alone can trigger them to do the same for another child.
- Make sure a security object is available for your child to use such as (teddy bear, doll, and blanket) to take in public, since they may be using genital play to comfort themselves in an unfamiliar situation.
- For children with developmental delay or other mental impairments that may not be as receptive to reasoning, positive reinforcement techniques may be helpful (for example, reward them for not playing with their genitals with special treats).
