    Nothing.

    I'd be a good parent and RESPECT HER PRIVACY, and never let her know I "found out."

    Nothing, as long as she wasn't doing it in public. If she did, I'd take her aside and tell her that while there's nothing wrong pleasuring herself in private, some things are inappropriate if done in public.

    That masterbation is a normal part of sexuality...


    Just make sure she washes her damn hands first!

    It depends...

    If she's doing it in the kitchen, on the bus or whatever - I'd strongly suggest a mpre private place.

    If it was in her bedroom or bath, I'd suggest she close the door.

    However, it IS polite to knock... so I am a bit curious about the circumstances in which "I" found her out...

    I'd make sure she understood that A) it is a private matter, not to be done in public or around others, and B) to make sure her hands are clean prior to the task.

    I would also make sure she didn't feel any shame about her body. +5

    If she's doing it in private, say nothing unless she asks about it, then give her reassurance that it's not dirty or wrong. If she's doing it at inappropriate times and not privatly explain to her that privates are private and if she wants to do that it needs to be in private. That's the phrase I am using to begin explaining to my daughter that her privates are not to be touched my anyone other than herself.

    How did I find out? Did she tell me? Did I walk in on her? The exact reaction would be different depending on circumstances but I would make sure to include the fact that it's normal to play with herself and possibly caution her about sticking foreign objects up there.

    It's a completely normal part of growing up.

    I'd just tell her though that you can only do this in private places (not public) hence the name! and to be careful not to tell any of her friends etc, as boys could be after her- try to use her.

    If she's really young it might be a signal that someone is abusing her; I'd make sure I knew who she'd been around recently.

    Well if she hasn't spotted me, I'd probably get back out. Otherwise, I'd say "remember to wash your hands before doing that honey".

    Nothing. It's pretty natural.

    I would only offer my advice, knowledge or whatever if she came to ask me about it.

    As long as she was not using a frozen fish or a live gerbil, who cares?

    Unless she is doing it at the dinner table or in front of people. Then I'd tell her to take it to her room and shut the door.

    I'm assuming I walked in on her bedroom or bathroom while whe did this, in that case I would excuse myself and appologize for barging in. Any thing I say after that, would olny be embarrasing for her. It's a natural thing, and wouldn't want her to feel embarrassed.
