Pee Pee Question

I have a 2 yr old grandson and he has a 10 month old sister. When he was little the doctor told my daughter skin on skin contact was very important, so she had her husband sleep sometimes with him on his chest. Then one day he was really into belly button on belly button he would match up his with yours (seemed ok to me). Now lately I noticed when I am changing his diaper he lays down and tells his little sister to come lay on his pee pee. And I find that very disturbing. Has anyone had that happen in there family before or do you think there is cause for concern that someone is doing this to him. I know little boys are into touching themselves and pulling on it but it just seem odd that he wants her to lay on him with no diaper on. Please let me know what you think. Should I have reason to warn my daughter. I was molested when I was younger and I just don't want it to happen to him.

What can I do next?

I had the same thing happen to me, I was raped and sexually abused by my dad. When my grandmother thought something was up, she was to afraid to tell me mom. Now she kicks herself in the butt for not saying anything. Honestly you need to talk to your daughter about this. That just does not seem right. I have a daughter and a son, and not once has either one of them ever said that. I really hope that you talk to your daughter soon, before it is to late. Mine went on for 13 years. Don't let it get to that. Because something even worst could happen. I hope this helps you. Take care!

Wow. I would really really have that looked in to. I mean I've never heard a child say something like that. That's very scary and I've been through that as well. Please let me know what happens and keep that baby safe! God bless.

I absolutely think you should notify your daughter. I would definitely be concerned.

I would talk about it... kids are fixated on such things, but I think it's okay to talk about it with your daughter, and to suggest to her that there can be plenty of hugging that goes on in the family... but it can be done with clothes on, thank you very much. I'm a big fan of cuddling as a family, and I'm a big fan of contact with skin... and you can find plenty of skin on arms and backs and feet and...

**Hi Everyone~
I just wanted to add a disclaimer to my post! I may have implied that all of you who co-sleep are having sex in front of your kids. Please, please know that is NOT what I meant, so, sorry if I offended anybody. My point was that in a few cases, parents have VERY poor judgment which COULD explain where he saw this happen. In no way did I mean that co-sleeping is about sex!**

Hi~
You know, I can see two different sides of it, but either way your daughter needs to know. Many, many parents co-sleep (although I am not a fan) and that sometimes means kids may see some stuff they shouldn't. 2 year olds also have an uncanny ability to silently enter a room before mom and dad realize it and can cover up! It's sure to raise some questions. HOWEVER, his behavior is definitely a red flag!!! His mom needs to know so she can watch his interactions with other kids as well as adults. It could be that she has suspected some shady things and was just waiting for him to exhibit certain behaviors before she acted. Hopefully, it is all benign and your grandson has just seen mom and dad in love!! :)
Get involved and speak up...you know (and sadly, so do I) that if people would get involved more kids could be spared the trauma of molestation!
Good luck~

I think that is very serious.First of all to tell her to lay on his pee pee he had to learn that from somewhere.I would really moniter that sitution and look for signs that are related. I would even question him about it like "have someone touch you on your pee-pee or have someone laid on your pee-pee" Definitly look into it.

I would suggest that you do tell your daughter. Just flat out say, your son said this and I just thought you should now. If my mom held that from me I would be mad. I don't agree with a lot of the other parents though. I think it is something that there should be a discussion with your grandson but I think it is your daughters job to have the don't touch conversation. I wouldn't put up the red flag just yet. He might have just associated cuddling with skin touch on his "pee pee". It could just be nothing. Boys are a little obsessed with their "pee pee". at that age and so I think without talking to him about it you really can't know. It's great to see that you are such a caring and involved grandparent. I just think that you need to tell your daughter and say that if she needs you to talk to him or help in anyway you are there.

that's a really tough one. I know as survivors we are uber sensitive to anything being amiss. I guess I would mention it to your Daughter. It may be nothing, or it may be something. No way to know without talking about it. I would also encourage you to talk to someone who maybe able to advise you on how to go about talking to your grandson about good touch bad touch, and what that means etc.

Hi there, I can understand your concern. Being 2 they are often curious about there "parts" however the fact that he tells his little sister too lay on him is a little concerning, I am not saying anything has happened, he might of just seen it on tv, or maybe mom and dad even, and he's putting it all together in his head. Kids are amazing on what they remember. I would just pay a little more attention to the things he does and says. I would talk to your daughter about it, that way she can pay attention to his actions as well.
I would start teaching him appropriate touches, as too inappropriate touches. Is he in a daycare? If he is, I would pay EXTRA careful to the way he is when he comes home or when he has to go. If he is learning these actions from someone, it may not even be an adult, it may be another child, that has been molested. Sadley enough, it's a scary situation as well, and one you can never be to careful with.
Best Reguards,
B.
