The parent of a 20-month-old is very concerned because the baby touches the genital area during diaper changes. How should the nurse respond to this concern?
1. At 20 months this touching is not a sexual experience.
2. Masturbation to orgasm is common and normal at this age.
3. Genital stimulation should not be occurring until the age of 2 1/2 or 3.
4. Babies are sexual beings, but this activity should be discouraged.
