I went to my grandaughters school for grandparents day. She is in 2nd grade. I had been told by a little bird that she has a bit of a crush on a boy who sits next to her... so while in the classroom, I saw this little prince charming. I whispered in Paige's ear "OOOOOOHHHH He's cute! No wonder you like school!" She got all red faced and said "Nana! He's going to hear you!" She still manages to do well in school though. lol

I think I would handle this in a different way. I would seriously try to nip it in the bud quick. I have a 10 year old daughter who likes boys and thinks they are cute and I have told her that is fine. She will be 11 in August. I have also told her that it goes NO farther than that beause she is still too little to be thinking about kissing boys. I am a Sub-Teacher at her school and I am shocked by some of the behavior that the younger ones display. Some are so boy crazy that it is really scary.

My daughter use to be friends with a girl who was 2 years younger than she. Well this little girl came over to have a sleepover and all she wanted to do was call her boyfriend and at 10 PM on top of it. UMM HELLO.... I told her that to begin with she was not playing on the phone all night and another thing that she was just too young (7 1/2 at the time) to be messing around with boys. All she could talk about was her what her BF had bought her or that she liked kissing him... Well I made sure that the friendship came to an end. She has only gotten worse and now has some what of a "rep" even at her young age.

The kids are just growing up so fast these days that it is scary. Girls will drive you crazy won't they! I sure know that mine is. Things will work out I am sure. I think just letting her know that little girls don't act certain ways help a lot.
