daughter crotch grabbing help?!
Im so fed up with my daughter grabbing her crotch constantly or humps things. She is 3 yrs old and does it for the pleasure, sometimes its to go pee but more often than not its the pleasure. I understand its normal but I wont stand for it right now. When she gets a little older Ill explain how its normal and okay.
Right now it’s embarrassing. Last night we had grand parents over and she grabbed her baby sister to play on the floor, but when her sisters hand accidentally came in contact with her vagina(over her clothes) she stopped playing and started rubbing her sisters hand on her crotch. Right in front of everyone too. I immediately grabbed her and took her in the other room and told her she needed to stop. She was being very deviant/sassy because she was overly tired and I dont think she cared about what I was saying.
My baby just turned 1yr and I was planning to move her crib into her 3yr old sisters room but now Im worried. I know my 3yr old doesnt really understand everything but I also don’t want her grabbing or using her sister to explore herself.
side notes…
I am a victim of SA from childhood so I have a LOT of anxiety around this kind of stuff. Im trying to be calm about and tell my daughter to quit grabbing and she usually does, but other times she wont stop. She is not abused, no allergies, potty trained etc. We just went to the Dr last month. Im also on anxiety meds.
Im a SAHM and literally with her almost 24/7, grandma occasionally babysits and thats it. Im extremely cautious with who is around her at all times from my own history.
