[quote=Anonymous]You really need to reinfornce the expectation of respect. No one should be slapping his butt or touching him and him thinking this is fine because he is a boy. Acceptance is important. Maybe he will grow into it, maybe he won't. Maybe it will become a feature he likes, maybe he will always wish it was smaller but regardless this is his body. This is why I think that the idea of talking about bodies as a big dark taboo topic doesn't help anyone. It is okay that he has insecurities that he needs to learn how to manage. You can build up his confidence in other ways. Everyone needs to learn to cope with difficult and negative feelings and emotions and know that this is normal to experience. [/quote]
