[QUOTE="BetterDayz2Come1, post: 722303, member: 22430"] I don't really know what to do or say about this. Im really confused. My 6 year old son is attracted to me.. It started almost a year ago and he just turned 6 last month. For months my husband and I would argue about it because I was in complete denial I believe that he was showing normal affection for a boy who loved his mother. My husband would notice my son staring at me when everyone else was watching tv or glaring at him with hate when no one else was watching, we've even caught him looking at me when i bend down to pick something up. My son was always in a better mood when my husband was gone. It became a competition my son wanted me to do everything for him that I did husband for my husband and he got an attitude if he wasn't first. Then it got worse. I was in the shower and my husband left out of the house and my son burst into the bathroom. When we asked why he did it he said he wanted to see me naked. I had to sit him down and explain that I was a women and I needed my privacy and that he could not see me naked. Then a few month pass and I caught him masturbating. I don't understand how or why he would do this. Is this normal? Hes only 6. I knew I would have to deal with this but not this soon I expected for me or his father to accidentally walk in on his when he was 16 or something ( I hoped I never had to deal with that). But definitely not at 6! I'm in a hard place because I don't want to not be able to tell or show him I love him. But I need him to know that its a completely different type of love that I have for him. That I love him like a mother loves her son not like how a wife loves her husband. He was my first son and I have 3 boys now. I need to know am I doing something to cause this. I've taken every precaution. I don't even walk around in shorts, I don't wear any sort of revealing clothes. Its hard on me also because I should be able to be comfortable in my own home and i'm not.
