the other day I happen to walk into the bathroom, while my ten year old son was the bath, although i wasn't embarrassed, I was a little suprised to see he had a full erection, is that quite young to start getting erections, being a single mum, I don't know much about young boys.

Tufty the answer is that children get erections from birth. My son when I delivered him in the hospital, and then went to hand him to the doctor had an erection and pee'd right up the front of the doctor in to his face. I was a little embarrassed, but he assured me he had been christened by may others. When they are potty training I have noticed with my boys, and our grandchildren when you take them to stand at the toilet, or urinal they generally will have an erection. Guess the only ones that don't are us old dogs ha! ha! Hope this helps. Have a Great Day!

NO that is not to young. Boys get erections from birth on. You might want to have a talk with him about masturbation and how it is okay and that he should do it when ever he wants but to keep it personal and private. Also, set up some privacy rules so that as he gets older and more modest you do not walk in on him. Check out the parent information on www.jackinworld.com. It really is helpful and informative. Also, masturbation is not a sin and has no harmful side affects.

I totally agree with Solo. BOys get erections from the day that they are born.

it's very normal,boys get erections even while in the womb.
It's not the first time this has happened to him,it's the first time you've seen him.
Your son is getting to the age when he starts puberty which is a whole different story....
Ask his uncle or trusted male to be ready for those type of questions when your son ask's.

I'm surprised you haven't noticed before. We get erections from the time we are born. I was masturbating at ten years old.
