Hello Ma'am ! I have a query my son who is now 6 years old has recently got inquisitive about boobs. He would keep on noticing it and has twice asked me why do women have it and men don't? I was little shocked on listening to his query and ignored it. I really don't know how I should have reacted at that moment? Was it right to ignore it? Please guide me what should be my reply, if he asks me again?

I am the mother to two girls aged 9 and 6 years respectively. Of late my elder one has started taking interest in scenes on televsion wherein a boy and a girl kiss each other or get cosy. She would keep on watching it so attentively that I have to sometimes change the channel. Is it right for a child her age to take interest in such things? I am scared to even think about what goes on in her mind that time?

Meri 5 saal ki beti kabhi kabhi private part touch karti hai. Woh neend mai apna hand undergarments mai rakhti hai. Kis karan se aisa karti hai mujhe samajh nahi aa raha hai? Usey subah pucho to kuch bhi yaad nahi hota hai? Kya yeh vyavahar uchit hai is age ke bacchon ke liye? Kya mujhe kisi manovigaynik ki madad leni chaihye??

I have been noticing from quite a few days that while watching Television or gadgets my son who is 5 years old,his hand goes on his private parts. He would keep on touching it unless told not to. I feel probably he himself doesn't realize he is doing so. Should I stop him from doing so or let him do what he wishes to? I am very confused, is it normal for a 5 year old to do so or am I missing something?
