Young age masturbation
I am a 33yr old mother. My son who is just 7, has already started masturbating regularly. He does it at home and since last 6 months has been doing it at school too. His class teachers have complained to me a number of times catching him in the act. I have spoken to him many times and told him that he needs to do that activity only when he is absolutely alone and never in any public place, least of all at school. He promises me that he wouldn't do it at school next time onwards but keeps breaking his promise often. Worse part, he goes to a co-ed school and now some of his female classmates who sit near and around him have also seen him indulging in masturbation a few times. They laugh and giggle at him openly. Whatever his class teacher has reported is that nowadays after I started taking him to the doc, his frequency has come down but he still does it once or twice in a fortnight. Also previously, he used to continue the activity even when he knew his classmates were watching him, now he doesn't do that anymore and stops it whenever he finds anyone watching him. Still the fact that he continues to do it in the classroom is causing me a lot of stress. Please suggest what best I can do?
