[696] For this reason, Fr. W. Förster, in his admirable “Jugendlehre” (Berlin, 1906), devotes a special section to the subject of “sexual pedagogy” (pp. 602-652).
[697] Maria Lischnewska, in her admirable work upon “The Sexual Instruction of Children,” published in Mutterschutz, 1905, vol. i., pp. 137-150, quotes the principal passages relating to this subject from the works of the writers just mentioned.
[698] In addition to the two admirable works already mentioned, by F. W. Förster and M. Lischnewska, I may allude also to the following: Richard Flachs, “Sexual Enlightenment as a Part of the Education of our Young People,” with a full bibliography (Dresden and Leipzig, 1906); Carl Kopp, “Sexual Affairs in the Education of Youth” (Leipzig, 1904); Max Marcuse, “Sexual Enlightenment in Youth” (Leipzig, 1905); “Sexual Hygiene and Sexual Enlightenment in the School” (a Discussion at the First International Congress for School Hygiene, held at Nürnberg, 1904), published in the “Reports of the German Society for the Suppression of Venereal Diseases,” 1904, vol. ii., pp. 63-71; Karl Ullmann, “The Sexual Enlightenment of School-Children,” published in the Monatsschrift für Gesundheitspflege, 1906, No. 1; M. Flesch, “Enlightenment in the School,” published in Blätter für Volksgesundheitspflege, vol. iv., p. 164; Emma Eckstein, “The Sexual Question in the Education of the Child” (Leipzig, 1904); Adelheid von Bennigsen, “Sexual Pedagogy in the House and the School” (Berlin, 1903); Alfred Fournier, “Pour nos Fils quand ils auront Dix-huit Ans” (Paris, 1905); M. Oker Blom, “Beim Onkel Doktor auf dem Lande”: a Book for Parents, second edition (Vienna, 1906); Friedrich Siebert, “A Book for Parents” (Munich, 1905); same author, “What shall I say to my Child?” (Munich, 1904); Mary Wood-Allen, “When the Boy becomes Man” (Zurich, 1904); same author, “Tell me the Truth, dear Mother”; W. Busch, “No more Stork Stories: a Practical Introduction, showing how Children should be taught the Truth, and how the Family should be Safeguarded from Moral Contamination” (Leipzig, 1904); E. von den Steinen, “The Human Sexual Life: a Lecture to those leaving School” (Düsseldorf, 1906); cf. also, by the same author, “An Address to those leaving School concerning Sexual Love,” published in the Journal for the Suppression of Venereal Diseases, 1900, vol. v., pp. 259, 260; F. Siebert, “Our Sons: their Enlightenment regarding the Dangers of the Sexual Life” (Straubing, 1907); F. Siebert, “The Sexual Problem in Childhood,” published in “The Book of the Child,” edited by Adele Schreiber (Leipzig and Berlin, 1907), vol. i., pp. 106-117; L. Bergfeld, “Take the Bandage from your Eyes, dear Sister: an Open Letter to Adolescent Girls” (Munich, 1907).
[699] In some cases the child will criticize the grown-up’s fables with a sharp-sighted logic, as the following story proves: Pepito, a child seven years of age, asks his mother, “Tell me, mamma, how do children come?” “People buy them.” “I don’t believe that people buy them!” “Why not?” “Because poor people have the most!”
