Question

What's the best way to talk about masterbation with your child?

Answer 1

dont

Answer 2

If your young child is caught repeatedly touching him/herself, then you explain that touching a private part is something that can only be done in the privacy of his/her own room or the bathroom. Don't say it's dirty or bad, but that it's something that should be done in private and leave it at that. If it's not an issue and your child's older, there's no reason to bring up the topic at all.  

Answer 3

you don't need to talk about it unless it is a disturbance in your home. there's no need to embarass your child for that. i mean, its not like he's hurting anyone

Answer 4

unless this is becoming a disterbance in your home there really is no reason to talk about it.

dont embarass your child and yourself unless you have that kind of an open relatinship. not all topics need to be coverd. sometimes you just gotta let them do things on their own.
