Curious 4 year old? Or something else?

Question

My 4 year old is being strange lately and I don't know if it's normal or not..

She's interested in my breasts- which I know is normal. She asked me what happened to them- I told her that when girls grow up and turn into women, their breasts grow. She seemed satisfied with the answer, but lately when she's in my lap, she tries to pull my shirt down so she can see them or she'll pinch them or whatever..

Is that part normal? I keep telling her not to do that, but she thinks it's funny. She just laughs..

What do I do?

Answer 1

She is just discovering new things. She probably never paid attention to them before.
And little kids like to repeat things over and over even if parents tell them to stop.
I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Answer 2

My 4 year old daughter does this also and she finds it absolutely hysterically funny! But I tell her no and that those are for my eyes only and nobody can see them because they are mine. Her dad and uncle took their shirts off to play basketball and she took her shirt off too and they confused her because they told her that she had to leave her shirt on. She didn't understand why. I still don't think she fully comprehends what the deal is but she knows not to show boobies.

Answer 3

it's pretty normal. my daughter wanted to know when she'd get "pillows". just remind her that it's not something to talk about when other people are around. you might have to enforce the lesson with a time out or whatever you do when she doesn't mind.

Answer 4

I think it's normal. I would say there is no sitting on mommy's lap if it continues - say this is Mommy's, not hers. It's a phase and eventually it will end.

Answer 5

show her that you get upset
cause then she might try to do it with someone else
and they will not like it and neither would you

don't change in front of your kids or turn them around if you can't change without them being there.

Answer 6

It' s normal just tell her no.
