Good morning! Let’s chat about what you can do 

when you’ve got a 6-year-old who likes to hump the couch. :D

My answer for you this week comes from some of the values that underpin the whole Evolved Family method. 

Behaviour is communication. 

Our kids don’t do things for no reason or to wind us up. 

Behaviour is logical and there’s always a reason.

You see, our kid’s genitals, and sexual self, are just the same as their face, eyes, hands, respiratory system, and so on.

They’re just another bit of who they are as a human.

So what can you do, or should you do, if you have a kid who loves to rub their private bits on the furniture? 

The first thing to know, is that so much of parenting, has to do with asking ‘Is this normal?’ 

So: it’s normal to ask, is this normal. :)

Oftentimes, parents can feel very worried or concerned when ‘Is this normal?’ has to do with sex, gender, bodies and all the things. 

And I totally understand why. 

We’ve been programmed by our culture, whenever we hear about children and anything to do with sexuality, to jump to all kinds of scary conclusions.

But it’s actually normal for us adults,to learn as we go about what is normal and awesome for our kids, when it comes to their sexuality. 

And our kid teaches us this, by being their awesome self.
