Re: When little boys touch your girls...
I dont think you are too strict and its a good idea to keep reminding your daughtes to come tell you if they are not comfortable with anything. And i think people who will get offended by this will be the ones with no daughters themselves.
Re: When little boys touch your girls...
Ira, as a mom of 3 boys, I disagree. Although I allow my boys to express their affection to their family and friends, I am also extremely sensitivte to those who are not comfortable with shows of affection and carefully raise my boys to be the same. If someone is uncomfortable with shows of affection then we all keep that physical distance and thats that.
Its basic courtesy and respect.
Sorry ho, I was just trying to advertise 
Re: When little boys touch your girls…
Mamaof3, what i meant was people like Niksik mentioned in her earlier post, who got all wierd because someone got uncomfy by their child’s actions. I am sure you keep others’ feeling of comfort in mind! 
Yeah well, better to be strict with your daughters than them having boyfriends at age 12. By the way, does that lady have a daughter herself?
No that lady has 2 boys.
However, I think some people are just insensitive. Like MO3 said, there are some moms who are very careful about the social etiquettes of their children, boys or girls.
Re: When little boys touch your girls...
my son is only a baby (16 months) but he is at the age where he copies our actions and we have to be careful of how we act around him and what we expose him too aleady.
The thing is with some people is that they are very narrow minded and selfish in their views, they can't accept that you MUST be careful with your children, the world out there is a very sick place. if we don't teach our sons and daughters right from wrong then nobody else is prepared to do that.
Hareem about not saying boyfriend girlfriend to your kids - that is a very good thing but what about the other children they are exposed to especially living in the west they go to schools, colleges, universities and not only are they exposed to these words but also to these relationships that their peers are in.
Re: When little boys touch your girls…
6/7 years is about time kids starting to realize the limits as far as physical contact is concerned.
My daughter is only 3 right now but I have all tendencies to become “oyeee kuri da hath chooor dai oyee”

Re: When little boys touch your girls...
give the little boy a ear twister or give him a ear twister followed by a slap in front of everyone.i can bet he wont do it again for the rest of his live.
Re: When little boys touch your girls...
Nik, i don't think you're over reacting at all. I would think that after i've asked the boy and his parents that I don't like the touching ONCE, the next time it happens, I take the boy aside and say "listen buddy, i know what you're up to, i'm watching you, if you touch her again, I will get the boogie man to come get you at night while you're sleeping and he will yank out all your teeth"
problem solved.
Re: When little boys touch your girls...
boogie might work and might not.i think he has grown beyond that age.ear twister in front everyone including his parents followed by a slap(rap-ta) would work like a charm.if he again does it then it means he is sick.ban his entry in your house
