So my little girl has recently started discovering her private parts.
When I was younger I was always shouted at told not to touch etc.
From what I’ve been reading/heard in various places this is what leads to shame later down the line so I’m wanting to be more open.
My general chat with her when I’ve seen her touch is this-
“Our private areas are private. There isn’t anything wrong with wanting to look or touch the area (herself!!) but to do it privately not in front of me and daddy (or anyone else) as it’s not something we would want to see. If she has questions about it to ask me and if anyone else asks to touch or look at her private area she must not do so and tell me immediately who asked this”
Is this right or am I going to far? Doing too little?
I just want her to be comfortable, know self exploration is okay etc..
please no judgement
