‘How can I get my 5-year-old daughter to stop touching her little brother’s penis,  without shaming her? I’ve said that his penis is private, like her vulva is for her. But she keeps doing it.’  What a great question.   As parents, it’s good to talk about this.  Because when stuff like this happens with our kids,  we immediately think about horrible news stories of abuse and non-consent, and our minds go to some very scary places. So we really want to get this right.  But here’s the thing.   It’s actually NORMAL for kids to be curious about bodies.  Their own bodies and other people’s.   To hear more about this great question,  have a look at our video here. x Sarah  Ps. This is a gentle reminder of how to support even more connection between you and your growing kid. Because sometimes it’s helpful to be reminded of the things you wanted to talk about in your family, but you’ve forgotten about it in the swirl of family life x
