How can I get him to keep his hands OUT of his pants?

[Gwendolyn]

DS has started pulling at his diapers to loosen them so he can get his hand in...DH is very supportive of the whole endeavor.

It is like the best toy for a boy, AND it never gets lost!

What worked best for us was a good discussion on touching yourself like that in your room or the bathroom, in private...and then ignoring it when you could. Just like what most everyone else has said....



....now if only son#2 would let go with the Kung-Fu grip.....

Well, I might have told you the unorthodox thing one of my friend's did. She told her boys that she used to have a penis and she played with it so much it fell off. :! :!

OMG...Sue, that is so...horrible and funny at the same time. I can just imagine what my boys would have thought!!!

Alex still does this, Jenn and he just turned 7. When he's naked, he actually leads himself around by his penis...I used to even worry that he'd injure himself

I guess it's just a ...guy...thing.

I suppose we can just pray that they won't be sitting on the sofa's like Al Bundy someday with a beer in one hand and the other hand down their pants.

Any ideas? Matt, David, Peter - some help here?

Don't look at me - I didn't quit this habit until last week!

Oh sure :>

You guys are so funny.

Isn't it?!?! I was hoping by putting the little blue guys dashing away people would realize I don't actually condone this. I thought it was hysterical, but I don't plan on freaking out Mitchell with that little gem.
That is funny that your son leads himself around by his penis, I guess that just goes to show who really is in charge with those guys!!!
