Adolescent students are frequently perplexed and distressed when confronted with changes in their own physiology and psychology. This requires parents and schools to provide timely guidance and education to assist them in overcoming their growing pains, enhancing students’ self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-protection, and assisting children in developing self-management skills during adolescence. Sexuality education in real time has incalculable practical implications for guiding children’s own gender identity and formation of traditional sexual orientation.
