According to Osho, children should be told the facts of life truthfully—but not indiscriminately or by age alone. Wait for the child’s own inquiry and respond with honest, appropriate answers; don’t lie or evade. Suppression breeds ignorance and perverse curiosity; truthful, timely guidance—covering body, feelings, and the sacred dimension of sex—cultivates healthy understanding and trust.
Tell kids the truth about sex when they ask, in a way they can understand, instead of hiding it or giving too much too soon.
