Im interested in this too, Im not sure if ds is doing it or not but I know hes been pulling ti as far forward as he can, cos when I asked him about it he said he was "hiding" his penis. I took him once to the drs for a suspected UTI (which he didnt have) and they said he had a "loose foreskin" so I, guessing it will be sooner rather than later.
Is it normal for them to get upset when they have an erection? DS gets quite upset about it.

Yes it is best to clean it when the skin is retracted with soap and water, this enables you wash away anything that has collected under the foreskin.

Some children do get upset about getting an erection. I’m not 100% sure why but I believe it to be related to body image. They are used to their penis being soft and flaccid then all of a sudden it becomes hard. They obviously do not know the reason for the change and it can cause them to become concerned. One reason for ‘hiding his penis’ could again be related to body image. He is used to seeing his penis with the foreskin covering the head, when the skin is retracted it looked different and therefore he pulls the foreskin forward to make it look “normal” again. This is only an educated guess and I may be completely wrong but it is something for you to consider.
