Twins Touching private parts

2022-03-12 15:29:14
Recently I have noticed my twin sons who are aged 5.5 years sometimes gets engaged touching each others private parts by pulling pants down when no one is around. We noticed it twice and when asked they said to have done this 5-6 times which is a serious concern for us. They also try to hide this when asked. Is it normal or something to be worried. Please advise.

This is not normal behaviour , u have to take it seriously . But u should not shout or threaten the boys . As they are very small children if u shout them they may get scared and try hiding out things from u . Better is to counsel them together and then individual . Shouting them will have a negative impact. First explain them that this is not the right behaviour and they educate them calmly . Let them know the need to change their behavior and praise them if they agree to listen to u . This type of treatment is called as positive reinforcement as it encourages them to do right things and listen to u .
Next Steps
First counsel them and make them understand that they should not do anything like this If they listen to u then praise them and give them rewards .
