The answer

There is no blame for what was done before puberty, because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "The pen has been lifted from three: from the child until he reaches puberty, from the sleeper until he awakens, and from the insane until he regains his sanity." If the sister continues to do that, then she must be advised and shown the dangers and consequences of her action.
