My boys were almost 5 and 2 when we visited Walt Disneyland. The 5 year old was all about the princesses: Bell, Cinderella, Snow White, Ariel, Tiana, and etcetera. I wasn’t sure what the sudden interest was. I guess my mom intuition was hovering on naïve.
Anyway, he was all smiles and hugs with these beautiful princesses. Princesses that he had no knowledge of because we had not read their fairy tales or watched their movies. As I watched I pondered this behaviour and a slow realization dawned. He was flirting! In his tiny adorable way he was flirting, and he was loving the attention. Girls and women at 5! Seriously?
As if that wasn’t a shocking enough discovery I witnessed another crafty move. While he posed to take a picture with Ariel, a picture that I never actually took because I was so thrown off course, I saw his tiny hand rest on the princess’s breast. He was groping the princess! She very delicately had to remove his hand from her breast.
Now I’m sure it was an innocently placed hand, but the coincidence of the timing with his sudden onset of noticing pretty ladies couldn’t have been better planned.
But seriously girls and women at 5? Raising boys there is never a dull moment or a time when they don’t have me scratching my head and wondering what I have gotten myself into.

‘The Penis Chronicles’ makes me laugh. My mom raised me and my brother, I wonder if she can relate?

Yep, I had a teen-aged girlfriend when I was 5. And I was a couple of 5-year-old girls’ “boyfriend” until they outgrew it (Once I brought my real girlfriend to my sister’s house and my 5-year-old niece stayed firmly planted between me and my friend. If looks could kill!) Copping a feel? As a 5-year-old I wasn’t that brave 😉

My nephew was very affection when he was little. I remember picking him up from the church nursery when he was maybe 3 or 4 and being told that he had been kissing one of the little girls. Girl Who Reads

How funny! Thank goodness he was so young and, I’m guessing, Ariel was trained on how to handle that. Did you have a talk with him after the fact?
With Love,

Yes, we had a chat about appropriate placement of hands and we included breasts on the list of private parts. We haven’t had any repeats.
