How do I get my 7 year old son to stop spying on his 5 year old sister when she changed clothes?

I have a son who will be 7 in August. He is obviously a curious child, but he cannot be allowed to explore his 5 year old sister's anatomy! How can I get him to stop? He has even gone as far as to take off her pants when they are playing! I have tried to punish him, but it keeps happening... What do I do?How do I get my 7 year old son to stop spying on his 5 year old sister when she changed clothes?
punish him.. and monitor them when they are changing.. force them to change in separate rooms.. and stay with the girl while she changes so he cannot peek.. best of luck :)How do I get my 7 year old son to stop spying on his 5 year old sister when she changed clothes?
O_o Woah........................
Oh lord, im pretty sure he has been sexually molested....
well if nothing works, maybe you need a different punishment
It's not always a sign of molestation; it could indeed just be curiosity if your son is curious about other things as well. My suggestion is to bring home some kid friendly anatomy books to let him look at with you, or even regular medical books from the local library. It will help satiate the curiosity in a manner that isn't as disturbing to you as a parent.
a good spanking will make him think twice about doing that again
Um, it is a sign that he has been sexually molested. Ask him about it, about if someone has been touching his body - his genitals in particular or showing him their genitals. It's not curiosity, it's a sign of sexual trauma in such a young child.
tell him that he is supposed to like other girls and that girls have cooties.
A sign of SEXUAL MOLESTATION?!?!? Jeez, somebody must have been ';played with';, as a child themselves!



With THAT garbage out of the way.....



The FIRST mistake you made was paying too much attention to it- you overreacted! (I CAN understand why, though!)

Best guess, here- he's indulging his natural curiosity about the difference between Boys and Girls- just in an inappropriate way! I would FIRMLY tell him that what he is doing is NOT an acceptable way to treat his sister, and then, I would get a book or somethig that explains the differences (with pictures, if need be). IF...it continued, then I would consider spanking his tail for it- the behavior HAS to be stopped! If it then continued, I'd see the pediatrician!
