Question
My son is over 8 years old, and he gets an erection when he sees intimate actions on TV. Should I be worried that he is maturing prematurely? Is this phenomenon normal? Previous treatment and effects: None. How to assist: How should I view this, how should I guide him?
Answer
I’m glad to help clarify your concerns! Regarding your child’s question about penile erections, it’s actually not something to worry about; it’s a normal occurrence. As of now, you can simply adjust your mindset and view it as such. If your child doesn’t have any other abnormalities, there’s no need to worry. It shouldn’t be considered premature development.
