My 5 year old Princess came home from school the other day and told me that he had a boyfriend! His name is Matt and any time we mention His name she smiles really big and acts embarrassed. My question is...is this normal behavior for a little girl? I don't remember having crushes that young. I just wanna hear what the mothers/ father with little or more experience gotta say lol

It's cute tho when she smiles at the mention of Matt.

Careful with matt o. Kids of nowadays are not smiling at all. Tell your daughter that it is inappropriate for her to have a boyfriend right now. And teach her to tell you if she is touched in certain places by anyone, including matt. Also, if anyone asks her to do any thing to them, she should scream and runaway. She must also tell you as well. A lot of kids come from bad homes and are abused. They see bad things at home, and act it out on their mates. Be vigilant.

Lol@ careful with Matt, thanks. Even though she's too young for some certain lectures on that field, she is for sure aware of some certain red lines.

They are never too small. They are most vulnerable at that age. At least in my time perverted little boys liked to peep at girls pants, now they can touch o. Just teach her what to do in certain situations, maybe at play time. You can't be everywhere she is. It might even be a relative. Which is mostly the case.

Gracias

Lastly, you don't want her dealing with heart break, self esteem issues and rejection at such a small age. Should matt decide to like another girl. Just tell her boyfriends are for very big girls like mummy. That if they touch her daddy will know and God will be angry. . Oops! , that was my dad's line.

Hahaha! Thanks again. I happens to know Matt and his parents both are medical practitioners and good people. Their teachers told me how close my daughter and Matt are. To sum it up. They're both the best students in their grade especially in Maths -

tellwisdom: homie, take her to the school and ask of matt; you sure would know better.

Oh, that's great. Congrats. Crushes are part of being a girl. But you want to keep her on track and protect her heart/innocence for as long as possible. This world is just something else these days. Tell her matt can only be her best friend. Boyfriends are for big girls. Don't forget to tell her how beautiful and smart she is. Always.

una can lie sha.

You know old lady, I posted this out here to avoid enclave arss folks like you making some stuupid comments and here you are displaying your madness as usual. Why would anyone lie or deny their child? Oh I guess. . . . . . . . . . .

.

@op is it normal to have boyfirnd and girlfriend so young yes it is. But i would ask her some more questions like who is Matt is he a child in her class and what does she do with Matt, why does she call him her boyfrind inquire a little so you can fully understand the situation. I take my 3 year old to daycare and once her arrives teh little girls come up and hug him and take him away to the activities so tbh i think its a normal thing, but probe your daughter more to fully understand her.

^^^ was your son born in Nigeria or Canada?

i had my first boyfriend when I was just 4 years old
he was in my class
we kissed everyday before our first morning class

onila: i had my first boyfriend when I was just 4 years old

we kissed everyday before our first morning class

Lmaooooo Onila WTF? And you are still a virgin @ 24?

Matt might b a teacher, or the concierge
Like people said you better know who matt Is, then if they have the same age and are in the same class let them b , It's harmless

REALITY101:

Lmaooooo Onila WTF? And you are still a virgin @ 24?

we just kissed on the lips nothing serious

i was more social when i was little

REALITY101:

Lmaooooo Onila WTF? And you are still a virgin @ 24?

. If you believe she's a virgin, then all the old hags in this section are virgins

^are you calling your mother an old hag?

you should quit the ratty atttitude and have some class when you type.

you're supposed to be female, not so?

you and onila are both very uncultured and bratty, maybe reality should just bed the two of you since you obviously need it.

NL Whorez be hating on my V-status

i am more behaved than that brat called ikele idi

OMG what's going on here

Everything was going on fine until tpia@ appeared

I think you need to undertand her perception of 'boyfriend'. She may mean a close friend or she may have watched 'adult movie'...not porn please...and now gives a deeper meaning to 'boyfriend'

Also try to know who the Matt is. What if he is far older than her? You know the implication.

Always ask her questions to avoid things getting out of hand. Kids' stuff can be very deep and they grow from openness to secrecy. At that point she wont update you on matt anymore,but alot will keep going on.

Reality,its payback time for your little girl seeing as 'em dudes have started eyeing her at this age and she in turn feeling butterflies for 'em..
God don catch you!

Seriously,I think its nothing to be worried about.Everyone has crushes about this age though i think this is just a friend she just likes.It'll pass.
Her mind is still too young to process all the angles that'll come with understanding what a boyfriend is or not so i don't think you should go explaining to her.
Don't sweat.
