DD kissing all the boys…….

Have a chat with your DD and find out what's happening. Is she kissing or blowing kisses? Is she the only one or are other children doing it too? Has this happened regularly or one day? She should definitely understand that touching other people requires consent and that frequently blowing kisses might be unwelcome attention. However, don't use language like "You'll get a reputation" and the youngest in year group should make less difference as she gets older.

No, it was banned in the 80’s

10 years old!!!

So cute, she’s just friendly with everyone.

If this is something that’s worrying you then I’d speak to the class teacher and ask if she’s noticed any of this behaviour. I’d also have a little chat with your dd and see what she says. I would scold her or give her into trouble, I’d play it cool, ask if she plays with the children who mentioned it and say they told you a sorry this morning and see what she says. If she is going around kissing their hands/kissing/ blowing kisses then ask her why and then gently encourage her to stop.

Try not to worry, the children could be making uk stories and trying to get your dd into trouble.

👏🏼👏🏼

Do people not realise the irony of their outrage about sexualised children, whilst they’re the ONLY one sexualising children.

Either kissing is always sexual or it isn’t. And if it is let’s hope these people never kissed their babies.

It definitely isn’t the same thing whatsoever. By legal definition a sleazy co-worker has capacity and is old enough to know the difference between right and wrong - a nine year old doesn’t. This just needs to be a simple conversation and nothing half as dramatic as your nonsensical comments would suggest. Sexual harassment, sleazy and perpetrator? Honestly, if you’re being remotely serious you need to sit down and have a quiet word with yourself because you are ridiculous personified by the sounds of it. Stop sexualising the actions of children because it’s more telling of your character than that of the you know, child.

I’ve got nothing new to add but you need to find a way to think about or get help to think about what you think a 9 year old girl could get a reputation for but blowing kisses. You need to seriously do some work on that and I mean that with zero judgement or unkindness.

There is lots of sexually inappropriate behaviour that happens in primary school.like full on assault, staff need to be really on it, nipping things in the bud.
Our school does not allow 'couples' for example.

Funniest thing I’ve read today 😂😂

I find it a bit weird that anyone would peg such young children as sexual harrassers rather than what they are mostly which is innocent and naive.

Me too. I find it quite bewildering how some posters on here imply OP’s 9 year old daughter was sexually harassing other kids by (allegedly) blowing kisses.
I would find it equally strange if the genders were reversed at that age btw.

Quite.
Reads like a Herbert, frankly.

I agree @ItsNotAShopItsAStore I've seen this frequently on MN, posters who are upset by children's sexualised behaviour but not understanding that they are the ones sexualising it. A child blows kisses, so what. If it's annoying people then she needs to be told to stop. Just like if she continually hums or cracks her knuckles. It honestly bewilders and annoys me that this can be seen as sexual harassment.

You need therapy because you think a 9 year old can have the reputation of being a slut.

This is the weirdest worded comment I’ve ever read. What on earth is ‘cumsluttedness’, and why does the size and fit of your bra matter?!?

Banned by the Staff, you muppet !!

same!! I went to school in the 80’s and 90’s and none of these games were banned.

Birthday bumps were actually encouraged by the dinner ladies 🤣🤣 i was so happy to have a birthday in the holidays as having your mates bang your arse against concrete looked painful 😂😂

My DD is in year 6 and they all have boyfriends and girlfriends - except my DD who tried being a girlfriend but dumped him a few days later as she ‘couldn’t be bothered with all the hassle’ (apparently he was asking too much to spend break time with her 😂 good for her) - but none of them are kissing or even holding hands. It’s a status thing it seems.

My DS is in year 2 and told me he kissed his girl friend’s hand yesterday because she hurt herself and was crying and he tried to make her feel better (it’s what I do to him when he’s upset as the tickling makes him laugh). I find it a bit weird that anyone would peg such young children as sexual harrassers rather than what they are mostly which is innocent and naive. I think so many parents overreact about what are actually very small fry issues rather than having a bit of perspective. It must be exhausting being a child these days with a parent overanalysing your every move including blowing a kiss! Which actually in many cultures is very much a normal way to express friendship and affection.

BANNED?! Which statute bans kiss chase 🤣

We definitely played it in the 90s, when Red Rover and British Bulldog were banned at our school.

Had a chat with my 10 year old DC, his friend ended his "relationship" with his gf as she wanted to make out and wouldn't take no for an answer when he said no. They are all 10...and I talked to DS about boundaries and consent.

Not sure blowing kisses ranks as harassment, nor will it lead to a reputation, but in the case of my DS I do wonder where very young kids are getting these ideas from

My school allowed kiss chase in the 80’s!

I can’t stand kids like this (the boy not your DD!). They usually talk absolute shite in a bid to get others in trouble. Don’t fall for it.

No one likes a tell tale tit

No, it was banned even in the 70s.

Didn’t you ever play kiss chase at school?

no... what on earth is that

She’s blowing kisses from HER hands! Didn’t you ever play kiss chase at school?
