[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I (female) was about 5, I was caught comparing privates with my cousin (boy), he was 4, by our moms.
They definitely made us feel ashamed. It did not stop my curiosity though, it only stopped me trusting and confiding in my mom in the future.

OP, I do not mean that you are that type of mom, I just mean to highlight how much these things stick with kids, and what impact they can have.

I have a boy, 6 yo, who often plays with the girl next door, also 6. I know they often kiss on the cheek when playing, and I know that it stops there (yes, I do listen and check on them). When they are at her house, the girls mom keeps telling them that they should not kiss. I think this is counterproductive and they are not doing any harm any way.
Like they are playing they are a family and they kiss goodbye etc.
That mom is nuts.[/quote]

Of course you do, you're the boy's mother!  Ugh we just had this issue with some neighbor's kid and our daughter.  Now I feel like we need to watch them since the boy instigated it.  [/quote]
