[quote=Anonymous]OP here. I didn't talk to the parents of the boy who made that suggestion. I don't think we'll be seeing them again with the kids out of our sight, so it didn't seem like a big priority to do so. But maybe I should, awkward as it is (I don't know the parents well).

The suggestions to never let kids out of sight, at this age, seems impractical and over the top. When would that end? And it doesn't matter whose house they're at; this could happen at our house too, if they're out of sight. But I just can't see the parents camping out in the same room the whole time during a playdate! No other parent has suggested this either.

As another poster (or two) pointed out, there is just as much of a risk with other girls, probably, as with boys. I don't know how confident DD would be to stand up to an older girl, but maybe that is the key, to instill the confidence to do so. I just don't know how to explain WHY it's inappropriate, and without making her ashamed if she's done any body exploring already. I'll check out the recommended book.[/quote]
