[quote=Anonymous]OP here - Important to remember these are 4 year olds -- and it's the first time my daughter mentioned this and she didn't do it front of him or around him, she was describing what classmate is like - really trying to process it. Our nanny mentioned that she had heard other kids were talking about it - the first time she heard it, so it could be addressed (ie. I think the nanny was being proactive and responsible to say she thought it was something to address). So, I'd say this is early intervention vs. something that has been going on at any period of time - and we were looking for things to nip it in the bud. DD has NOT encountered any teasing for her situation (which is pretty mild to be honest) yet - I was just point it out to say it's something I was thinking about how to deal with when it inevitably happens to her.
