Need your help

My 8 year old daughter told me today that she has been touched in her private part by her class mate 3-4 times this year!
While crying to me, she told me that she was totally ashamed of what she did and wanted him to stop.
She admiitted that she actually enjoyed it while he was doing it but she knew it was wrong and now she wants it to stop.
She has asked me to speak to him but was very worried that he would get upset that she told me.
What should I do? Please need help.

Oh goodness.  Yes, without question.  your 8 year old has been molested while at school.  I'd tell the teacher, counselor and principal like yesterday.  good luck

PS:  most kids who molest peers are doing something they learned so it is in the boy's best interest to be found out to offer intervention for what is going on with him.

Report the incident to the school officials, don't throw it out of portion it's a very serious situation and should be dealt as such. Kids do what they see people doing its neither of their fault, but it needs to be addressed
