My oldest is going to be 7 next month. Yesterday she had two friends over and were playing upstairs. When my 3 year old started crying I went upstairs and she had the door closed so I opened it and she was standing in her rrom with just her underwear on and her two friends were just sitting in her room. I said what r u doing? And she was like I was trying to be funny, and I said well that's not funny you need to put your clothes back on, and that her friends aren't going to want to play if she does that stuff. Her two friends one was a girl and one a boy. Then she was getting upset that the little boy wasen't looking at her getting dressed. So I was like well he doesn't want to see u like that. I think it made him uncomfortable, which I feel bad about but I didn't realize that she was taking her clothes off upstairs. Is this something that I should be worried about? I tried to explain to her that it's not polite to do that and her friends don't want to see her in her underwear. That she needs to keep some things private. Is this normal for a 7 year old? I could see maybe a toddler doing it, but I just thought it was kind of weird. Does this mean I will have big problems with her as she gets older? I'm so confused and I'm not sure how to handle it. Any advice would be appritiated.

 I would be a little worried if it were our little one because saying that she was upset the boy wasn't looking at her, was the other kid? I just think it sounds like she may have seen a t.v. show and had the wrong idea for her age or something else and since kids don't understand maybe thought it was normal. Don't extremely panic, but definately keep an eye out and I'd ask her where she had seen that before or why she decided to do that in the first place.

That sounds good, I definately want to see why she decided to do it other then she thought it was funny. because I sure don't think it is. Thank you so much for the comment, it was very helpful.

No worries my adopted little brother went through a weird stage he's about her age and he was saying he talked to a man on the moon about sexy stuff Confused (like in a dream) So turned out apparently kids at school and when he was in this place for kids people had talked about some sexual things and it rubbed off but he didn't really understand what he said anyways

 I can see why you were alarmed. Seems like you should worry more about where she was getting the ideas. There may be some influences (tv, school, social, etc) in her life that you should wean her from. Is there any way to ask her in a non-confrontational way about where she got those ideas. For example, gently and without accusation or shaming her ask her about why she did that and where she may have seen that idea? You could say that if you want your friends to be interested in you then use your mind and not your body. Your ideas are what will make you unique and help you to shine. Etc. 

GL. Hopefully it was an odd moment and no big deal in the long run.

I had sat down and talked with her last night, just to ask why she decided to do that. So she says i thought it was funny and they would laugh. So I said and did they? And she was like no, so I tried to explain to her that it wasen't appopritate, and that I wasen't mad at her but that she souldn't do that again because I didn't think it was funny. She didn't tell me someone told her to do it, more like she thought of doing it because she thought it would be funny. I tried to also explain that that kind of stuff can make people uncomfortable and that she need to be polite and she shouldn't be showing anyone especially little boys her underwear. Then I told her if anyone ever does try to make her do that, to tell me or daddy right away. It's so hard to have kids these days and I just hope I handled it the right way. I don't want her to feel like her body is bad, but I don't want her trying to get naked or in her underwear in front of everyone. Thank you for the help and support.

 See, i don't find that too weird at all. At some point, kids do weird things that we take as sexual in nature, but they don't, KWIM? I think you should definitely watch for things like this, but at the same time---She didn't think of it the way we do. We have to realize that in our children. I think you did it the right way, and spoke to her about it so it doesn't happen again, but I just wanted to add that your little girl is FAR from anything you need to worry about, and there are a lot worse things she could've done IMO. I could go into what someone did at my daughter's daycare, and you would be like "Oh good, I'm glad that wasn't my kid". Happy Wink
