I'm new to this site and I'm hoping some of you are going to be able to say, yep, that's normal!
My 8 year old has been like a teenager for at least a year, I know she has hormones going through her body and is learning to deal with them.
Recently, maybe the last couple of weeks she's been showing signs of exploring, wriggling around on the sofa with hands between her legs, has taken more of an interest in my boobs too, poking them (which I say not to do)
She's never shown signs of touching herself before and I know children do it, have seen them for myself (work with young children) but I have no experience with 8 year olds (other than having my daughter obviously) is it normal for this sort of behaviour to start at this age?
I've noticed that she's started to get bumps on her chest (little boobs) again, is that normal for her age? - wish I could remember back to being her age!
Thank you.
