"Don't bother discussing sex with small children. They rarely have anything to add"

- Fran Lebowitz

About this Quote

This quote by Fran Lebowitz is a tip that talking about sex with small children is not necessary or advantageous. It indicates that children are not fully grown enough to comprehend the complexities of sex and for that reason have absolutely nothing to add to the discussion. This is not to state that children should not be taught about sex, but rather that it should be performed in an age-appropriate manner. It is very important to bear in mind that kids are still establishing and may not be able to comprehend the complete scope of the topic. For that reason, it is best to wait till they are older and more mature prior to talking about sex with them. This quote acts as a pointer that kids ought to be appreciated and not exposed to subjects that are beyond their level of understanding.
