I have found that we are in the similar situation sometimes. I find that I have to tell Finn "No, don't touch, then I'm constantly trying to avert his attention elsewhere. The boys love to bathe together too, and diversion is the only thing I have found to work.The Malone'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09078956924109446437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437985098710325889.post-79715111000713713352008-05-18T20:54:00.000-07:002008-05-18T20:54:00.000-07:00Yeah, this is the best part of mommyhood huh...we ...Yeah, this is the best part of mommyhood huh...we have some expertise in this area. One idea is to have Ethan wear Swim trunks in the tub (after you wash the misters of course)so that Mason can have a visual of where NOt to touch. At 1 he will NOT understand the whole don't touch the Penis thing. BUT bright colored shorts are a different story, plus Ethan will feel really cool that he gets to do soemthing that Mason doesn't. It might seem wierd at first but after a while you can cut back on the shorts and then you will be touch free. This is a great learning opportunity for both of the boys because Ethan is setting the VERY best example of what is expected for your family and Mason will be one up on the learning curve! Hope this helps.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11055157459468698250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437985098710325889.post-24572715064582434232008-05-17T23:08:00.000-07:002008-05-17T23:08:00.000-07:00The first thing that comes to my mind is to explai...The first thing that comes to my mind is to explain the difference between accidentally touching it (like in the bath, while reaching for a toy or something) and on purpose. If Mason is not directly going for it, then try to help Ethan understand that it was an accident. If Mason is doing it on purpose, then tell him no. That should help Ethan know when is "bad" touching. (Although it's not "bad" in the sense you're probably worried about at Mason's age) Hopefully that helped. You may have already thought of that suggestion.Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05244020408563693523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437985098710325889.post-68766432227709696912008-05-17T11:06:00.000-07:002008-05-17T11:06:00.000-07:00Good question!

I'll have to think about that...(you would think that with four kids who have all bathed with one another at some point I would have some background on this one but I can't think of anything!).<BR/><BR/>My first instinct is to say that Mason is old enough to learn although it will be a pain...I know that Sarah understands when I tell her "no" occassionally...so maybe Mason is old enough, but it's hard to say at that age.<BR/><BR/>I'll think about it and get back you to you :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027526519270538794noreply@blogger.com
