Parents Neglecting Cleaning Sensitive Parts of Children

Some parents have misconceptions about children's hygiene and cleanliness concepts. They always believe that cleaning children's faces, hands, feet, and body is sufficient, often neglecting the attention of their reproductive organs. In fact, children's reproductive organs are very sensitive and can be stimulated due to unsanitary conditions. At this point, children can eliminate discomfort through frequent scratching, which can lead to pleasure over time and develop unhealthy masturbation habits. For example, children with pinworm disease, eczema or inflammation of the vulva in young girls, and foreskin inflammation caused by phimosis in boys can all cause itching in the vulva. Therefore, children use leg friction to relieve itching, and repeated actions can form habitual movements.

Emotional dissatisfaction

The masturbation behavior of children is also related to environmental and psychological factors. If parents do not pay enough attention to their children on weekdays, have distant relationships with them, have cold emotions, and lack close physical contact and verbal care, this will make the children seek comfort through self stimulation, and masturbate to obtain a temporary discharge of loneliness. As a result, over time, they develop this "masturbation addiction" masturbation habit.

Some parents often use intimidation and punishment to prevent, but the punishment is ineffective, which can easily cause anxiety and fear in their children, forming timidity, sensitivity, inferiority, and loneliness, making them seek comfort from masturbation. Therefore, when parents discover that their children have masturbation habits, it is best not to break them, but to find ways to divert their children's attention, such as giving them a novel toy to play with, Give him an interesting story.
