    another question on behavior

    Why does it seem like my dd has a very curious nature towards sexual parts of the body?
    I have no idea how to handle this. She continues to pull down her pants and show her siblings her "parts". and she will ask her brothers to show her theirsShe will come up to me or dh and paw at us. For me it seems like if she is trying to get my attention she is hitting me in the breast, not really hitting more of a pet like you would an animal. the same with dh only for him it is his groin. We have told her over and over that it is inappropriate. Etc etc. I don't know what to do??
    I understand that kids are curious but this has went beyond that now. She doesn't watch any adult shows or show that would have that type of stuff in it. Dh and I are pretty modest around the kids.
    So is this normal? Do I need to worry that she has seen something she wasn't supposed to? how do I handle it?
    Help please?? TIA

    Tough one...my son "touches" other people too but, he seriously has no clue he is doing it. Its a whole "body in space" issue. He is really unaware of where his hands, body is going.

    I know that the more attention I have given him on touching body parts (ie, if he has accidently touched my breasts), he does it more. So, I just try to move his hands to a more appropiate place and not make a huge deal out of it.
