Today, I tutored a third grade girl after school. She was squirming so much I thought she had to go to the bathroom. Turns out, she was just masturbating on the corner of a school chair. FML

Katie1921 tells us more.

Hi guys- OP here! To answer a few questions and concerns people have said- 1. I did not tell the girl's parents - I do not have a close relationship with them other than a few "hi"s and talking about the girl's homework, also I am a high school student myself and I do not know how to handle that situation at all 2. I knew she was masturbating because she stuck her hands down her pants a few times anddd... I'm not gonna go into details, but it was pretty obvious

these comments bother me. stuff like this has always happened we just didn't have things like the internet to share it. the kid might not have even known what she was doing, just that it felt good.

I wish i could unread this fml forever

It's a trap.... Chris Hanson date line NBC is hiding in the closet!!!!

this brings up the question.. what are ppl teaching there kids now days

That's the youngest i ever heard someone do that at.

If it's a constant thing with a young kid constantly masturbating it could be a sign that they were sexually assaulted

I am curious as to how you figured that out.... " what are you doing?" "Oh nothing just something I saw In a movie once"

This is not normal. This girl has been sexually abused. No child who hasn't started puberty, regardless of age or sex, should know what those feelings are or even be feelings those. This needs to be reported to CPS ASAP!

Nope. Wrong. Incorrect. Reporting this child, or shaming her, for perfectly normal behavior could seriously warp her future perceptions of sex. Aggressive sexual behavior or advanced sexual knowledge could be an indicator, but masturbation is neither of those things.

Children can start puberty as early as 8 or 9 (the age of the child in question) and agree with the person above me. I to discovered masturbation at this age and had no Idea that it was unusual.

I was 5 when I figured it out and was never sexually abused. I had no idea what I was doing, I just knew it felt good. It's normal for kids to experiment with their bodies... it's not a big deal.

You need to tell someone. This is fairly common for kids who have been sexually abused.
