I breastfed both my kids until age 3! Tandem feeding was tough, so I weaned my son first. How long did you breastfeed? 🤱 #breastfeeding #motherhood #parentingtips

why touch in in public
There was a story about a little girl who was being molested by her grandpa, she kept telling her teacher that her grandpa touches her flower..... No one realized until it was to late, the little girl was calling her private part her flower. haters can hate I totally understand why it's appropriate to teach your kids the correct names of their privates.
yeah it is nasty you can least tell him no no square instead of the actual word
My son called them his ,"no,no zones".
Get em ready in case they run into diddy
You teach them the correct names of their body parts because it is STATISTICALLY PROVEN THAT A PEDOFILE IS LESS LIKELY TO GO AFTER A CHILD WHO USES THE CORRECT WORDS FOR THEIR PARTS! IT IS A TURN OF FOR THEM PLUS IT MAKES THEM FEAR THAT THE CHILD WILL BE ABLE TO TELL ON THEM!!!! THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I DID WITH MY SON AND I EVEN TOOK A STEP FURTHER SHOWING HIM HOW TO KICK AND BITE AND SREAM AT THE TOP OF HIS LUNGS!! ROLE PLAYING WILL GIVE YOUR CHILD A CHANCE
And call 911.
facts teach them early alot of children can't express what is happening to them sexually GOOD MOM
I did the same thing with my boys, I told them only mom can touch ur penis and butt (when I would wipe them or bathe them when they were little) and I told em sometimes the Drs will but only when I’m in the room too. Not only girls need to be taught boys do too and for yal that think it’s weird or whatever u have issues.
proper terminology should ALWAYS be taught to children. No cute nicknames it’s a scary world.
not on social media please lady this is wrong
that's great work because people assume that only little girls getting molested.
why are you showing your kids an talking about penisis....talk to your kids privatly...not on a country wide public forum u tube channel for perverts watching your child .....what happened to families being private
I'm so glad this child is being taught this!
He needs to know what he has , and who see something wrong with her teaching him they are sick. This world they need to know .
I did the same thing so that way there is no confusion
I had to say weewee😭
Good job mama!!
😅
What a weirdo
But I do agree teaching children not to let people touch them , anywhere, and to scream NO! when they touch them
'nasty mother' 'why is she doing and teaching him that' well maybe if something happens to him, he'll be able to tell people where he was hit or touched
I teach my kids growing up to say this is my no no no square please do not touch me there 😂 and they use to say when ppl be too close to them too
I told my boys the same thing .
Kids shouldn’t say that, but at least they can say stop touching me!!!!!!!!!!!
good work momma. all kids need to know the correct name for their body parts.
Oh please! There's nothing wrong giving cute names to private areas, let children be CHILDREN, they are grown soon enough! My late sister called her boys " penises" wee wee squirter I thought it was hilarious! And ack when I brought my then 3 year old nephew to a b/fs house, he asked the brother of the guy I was seeing, " Do you want to see my wee wee squirter?" Bahaha I laughed , I thought that was too funny, out of the mouths of babes. An aside here , the brother politely declined, hahaha! I love children, you never know what they'll say.
Do not touch my coucheare myButt
why is this a public forum talking about this!!!!I don't want to hear your little boy talking about his punishment an I don't need you to tell me how to educate my child ..
whats the point
no. ewe. nasty as hell.
why not say pee pee. im sorry but i dont want my son saying penis. plenty of time for all that. its unnecessary
I can tell that it's going to be a good kid when he grows up
And teach them to yell and scream!!!
AND DON'T TOUCH MY MOUTH EITHER!!!
GOOD MAMA!!
Good Job Mom!!!💪🦹🏻
My question is, why did she touch it, I don't think she touched it, but I think she touched it
Good lessons Momma! God bless 🙏
💯
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏!!!
If cannot run. scream and drop like dead weight onto floora limp person much harder to pick up.
oh that's the mom... too bad
I'm a forensic interviewer, real names for body parts helps if people like me have to interview your child.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏take notes parents kids should know where a person can not touch ….bravo mom
