My kid always touches his private eve if we say no, many parents complain this.

What should parents do?

1 ) We should check for any rash or discomfort or discharge and get treated for worms if needed.

If you say so they have urge to do more.

Deviate them, divert attention.

Change environment, within few months they leave the habit.

3.) If the child is above 3 years explain patiently.
