I will be surprise in the first place. afterwards, i will keep an eye on the boy.

Feel surprise though but will monitor the kind of movies and video clips he watches afterwards

Obviously the child would have seen someone doing this and would want to try it. Influences from tv and family impacts on children behaviour.

I can't allow that

I saw a 4 year girlchild kissed a 3 year boychild on the mouth and she was not reprimanded by the mother. She laughed this off. Why would this be not serious as it would be if it was vice versa?

What would you do if you saw your 4-year old boy kissing a 4-year old girl ?

I will try to investigate the root cause for this .....definitely the environment we give to our child results such astonishing events....and some where we are responsible for it ....

Cheers....

Thanks Mr Jejeti

Thank you Mr Aki for sharing your thought.

Inspiring Dr Sankar; advice taking.

I can't agree less with you Dr Aniwetalu

Thank you Mr Joseph

I follow the question

Dear Dr. Harry ..

I see that this case at 4 years age is very innocent.

Best Greetings.

Do we really want to question innocence? Only a grown up can misinterpret such expression of affections. So, if a 4 year old boy kisses a 21 year old female, we think it is adorable.

Thank you for your submission Al-khafaji

Griepink, don't you see any problem with that?

Cuteeeeeee !!!

That is funny Dr. Murthy.

There is a need of moral and ethical development of our children. Specially our children use to follow what they see in movies

While kissing a small boy of 4 yrs kissing the girl it is the formation of the friendship & their may be some sort of occasion between two they have conveyed the feeling accordingly .

This is my personal opinion

Interesting Nada

I agree with Dr Ali

I will scan my immediate environment first (e.g check if the "PG" settings for my channels are intact). Then, talk to my wife about it so we can tackle it from multiple perspectives.

It will be the basis (topic) for discussion in our next family worship program. I won't yell at my son but I will kindly advice him especially his associates in school.

I will educate the children on the end result and what it meant.

Sure Dr Ali! Moral and ethical development of children is what we need.

Prof. Parikh I appreciate your personal concerns. Thank you.

Dennis your solution is laudable.

I agree with you Brother Dickson. Yelling at your child should be the last option is such situation.

Innocents yes, but they still need to be advised. Thank you Kakkar for your contribution

Thank you Atta! Your advise is laudable.

I will take them together on my lap and will kiss them both.

Thank you prof. Pattanayak

I agree with you Peter Griepink.

Regards!

What is wrong with that. I would kiss both of them.

Finally natural behavior :-)

It's our tradition to hug and kiss three times each other.It has a friendly ritual and a sign of good relationship. It means sincere innocent love. Mother kisses her children, students try to hug their teachers. Especially little ones need love and warmth. From the ancient times it was a kind of charm or talisman (defense from the evil spirits).

Do not do anything more than wipe their heads because they express a passionate emotion .

I feel It is a innocence....But moral education is must....We should keep full watch on our childrens.

what is the use of this question ?

my humble suggestion to avoid such questions.

They have seen adults kissing, so they copied it, no problem.

Better than hitting each other or shooting each other (for the USA).

Do not expect any type of abuse from a 4 year kid. He/she is innocent. I saw a 4 year boy/kid asking his mother not force him for non-stop kissing on her face due to non-stop sweating.

I also agree with Griepink's explanation, Adriana

Nothing. I do not think it signifies anything to any one of them. So, I will just let it go

Rzger, you have an interesting comment.

Thank you Dr. Josef.

Irina, I personally think your tradition is quite interesting. It promoting love and affection.

Thank you Dr. Ali

I agree with you Sir Mushongo

Thank you Ijad

I agree with your contribution Latief.

Dr Son, I believe this is all part of Moral education. It is not intended as a jovial question but established on educational and moral grounds.

I enjoy the contributions made already on the topic and see this as an innocent expression of affection by kids. However, alternative meanings could be deduced or attached to this act if the kids had prior exposures to wrong examples from adults in their surroundings including movies.

Very insightful

Very insightful

I'll warn them not to do that again

I will ask why he did that and later teach why he should not do it again

Will let him know what he did was wrong, advice and direct him.

I will let them tell me why they did that and then discuss its implications with them.

Its surprising the kind of answers you will get from the kids then you can stay on guard for the next surprise
