Whenever there is a developmental or behavioral concern involving your child it is a good idea to bring them to the doctor. Moving forward, it’s important to know a bit more about expected sexual behaviors and development for this age group.Īlso, as this behavior can persist in other times of stress, or when there is an underlying physical concern, a doctor’s visit can rule out any medical condition (like a bladder or a urinary irritation). The article, Sexual Development and Behavior in Children, from the National Child Traumatic Stress Network talks about some of the common sexual behaviors in childhood for School-Aged Children (ages 7-12) as: “A purposefully touching of private parts (masturbation), usually in private Wanting more privacy (for example, not wanting to undress in front of other people) being reluctant to talk to adults about sexual issues”. It’s great that in the past you’ve talked to your daughter about how this behavior was totally okay, and as a private activity she needs to do it in her room or the bathroom. For now, start to knock on her bedroom door when she’s in there to see if it’s okay for you to come in. If you open up her door and this is what she’s doing, it’s important to close the door and give her some privacy. You’ve mentioned talking to her about finding other ways to calm down when she is tired, and that’s also great. Now, give her some alternative tension releasers. Ideas like counting sheep, reading a book, slowly swaying to soothing music, or even aromatherapy are all easeful pre-bed activities.

You could even establish a “calm time” 10 minutes before bedtime where you do one of these soothing activities together.
