You could say something like 'Mom, I know this is embarrassing for both of us. But this is a normal part of growing up. I should have been more discreet and I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.' Explain that you understand it's not appropriate to do it where others might see. Also, ask her to respect your privacy more in general.
No. Such stories are extremely private and inappropriate to share. It involves someone's very personal and private behavior, and sharing it is a violation of privacy and basic respect for family members.
She should stay calm and have an open and honest conversation with him. Let him know that it's a normal part of growing up but should be done in private.
The mother should immediately withdraw to respect the son's privacy. And later, she can try to act as if nothing happened to avoid making the son feel overly embarrassed.
Well, the mom could start by giving her son some space immediately after catching him. Then, when she's ready to talk, approach the subject gently. Let him know that his body is going through normal changes and these feelings are natural, but there are boundaries and places where such activities should be restricted. For example, not in common areas of the house. Also, it might be a good idea to provide some basic sex education if he hasn't had it yet.
Sharing such stories is highly inappropriate. Masturbation is a very private matter, and if a girl is caught by her mom in such a situation, it should be a private family moment. Exposing and sharing such stories violates privacy and can cause great harm and embarrassment to the girl involved.
Yes, it's completely normal to be shocked. Masturbation is a very private act, and seeing a parent engage in it is unexpected and goes against the typical image we have of our parents. It shatters the sense of propriety and family norms we are used to.
One way is for the mother to have a private conversation with the son first, to clear the air. Then, the family can have a general discussion about respect for personal space. The father, if present, can play a role in mediating and making sure both sides feel comfortable. They can also use this as an opportunity to review family values regarding privacy and respect.
This is a very delicate situation. First of all, the mother should immediately leave the area to give her son privacy. Then, she might consider having an open and honest conversation at an appropriate time, but in a very respectful and non - judgmental way. For example, she could start by saying she's sorry for the intrusion and then talk about the importance of privacy in general.
