No problem there. Should I stop her masturbating with a balloon. And before you get on me about this, just google ballon masturbation and hold on! This is a serious fetish. So the question is, serious answers only PLEASE! Do I do something about my daughter balloon masturbating?If you have any serious advice, please help. Reply to this Question Share |

I concur with the others. It is normal and you should not make her feel guilty. I am assuming you have not had "the talk" yet. It is difficult for some parents. Read some good articles on it before you do. But, do it. You know you have to and now is the best time. She is arriving at puberty.

You have received great advice; I just want to stress and confirm the importance of not making her feel bad, guilty or uncomfortable about what she is doing.
It is normal and natural and she needs to know that.
The joys of motherhood!!
Good luck and lots of smiles.

Be open with her about masturbation. Talk to her about toxemia that can be a serious problem from using a balloon. Generally with children, I wouldn't call it a fetish yet. Kids experiment and sometimes what we call a fetish, they're still at the experimenting stage. At 11 you really can't expect her to fully know what she's doing or be developing abnormal sexual behaviors.
Talk to her about it. Ask her why a balloon was her choice, and where she got that idea. If she has access to a computer, she might have gotten the idea on there, as easy as you pulled it up.
