I'm surprised he wasn't marched to the front of the congregation, and exorcised on the spot.

I sincerely hope that was exaggeration on the needing a new church. Your young son was masturbaring as children do, and didn't know what he was doing or that it was not socially acceptable to do publically, and they would maker you change church for that??? If that is true that is not Christlike behaviour.

I think OP was saying they'd be too embarrassed to go back after this little incident, not that the church was banning them.

It isn't normal? Huh... I thought toddlers would do pretty much anything without regard for anything...

Toddlers being obsessed with their privates is totally natural. Especially boys.
They don't understand what masturbation is. Just that there's this really fun and interesting part of their body and it kind of feels fun to play with it. It can take a bit of teaching to get them to understand that they shouldn't touch themselves in public, but kids eventually get it.

Aww come on he just wanted to show god how big it was 😏

I always thought in catholic church the Pope makes his penis big with kids around him

I hear there’s a new church forming started by a priest who shits his pants.

If only it was that simple.

Hilarious!! I bet every mother in church was silently thanking God that for once it wasn’t their toddler embarrassing them 😂

I remember walking around the shops with my 3 year old son and he spotted the tampon shelf. “Look Mummy, there are those things you put up your pum!”

Every mom there was probably nodding their heads when this happened. 😂

This needs to be an FML

I'll bet the priest loved that one!!!

You need Ram Mandir🙏

I can only imagine how embarrassing that was! But have you not noticed the little guy doing that before elsewhere? In the church pew during services is not generally the best place to deal with the “appropriate time and place” conversation.

Obviously at the right time and place masterbation is not a big deal. But around other people is not appropriate....
