How often should a 12 year old kid masturbate?

Masturbation is a normal part of sexual development for adolescents, including 12-year-olds. The frequency varies greatly among individuals and can depend on personal comfort, curiOSity, and hormonal changes. It's important for young people to understand that masturbation is a natural behavior and that there is no "normal" frequency; what matters most is that it doesn't interfere with daily life or responsibilities. Open discussions about sexual health can help normalize these experiences.
