What Ever Happened to Cooties???

Not sure how to handle this......My six
year old son came up to me today and asked
if he could write a letter to his
girlfriend...Yes I said girlfriend(read my
heading again), because he is too shy to
tell her he loves her. I was completely
dumbfound :shock:
after I picked my mouth up off the ground
I told him I will speak with him
tomorrow....
How would any mothers out there deal with
this...What would you say to him?

it's so strange, I asked about his gf when
he first told me about her(a week ago).
He even pointed her out to me at school.
I asked him why does he feel he needs a gf
now, and he said because she already had a
bf(???) and because she is cute! I was so
caught off guard :lol:
i guess I should let him write his
letter.....

I remember when I was that age...(imagine
that) and there were 2 girls and 2 boys in
our class that were boyfriend/girlfriend
and every week they'd trade. We saw the
older kids doing that and wanted to be
cool so we had girlfriends and boyfriends
because that's what grown-ups did.
Nothing really, just the i'll sit by you
at lunch and stuff, then to be dramatic
they'd break up for a day and make a big
huge make up thing. No mushy stuff, just
for fun. We even had weddings on the
playground at recess, pastor and all!
It's just kids wanting to be cool in the
sight of those big kids probably.

Poor little guy.....I'm 21 but my class
had only 17 kids in it, so I can remember
alot because they went to school with me
until I graduated, and i'm still friends
with those kids. Only one of them had
babies, which happened before we
graduated, but he's doing well, married
the girl and is a great daddy. The other
ones are in college or working somewhere
and not married yet, or even dating for
that matter. :d
your little boy sounds so sweet.

he's so sensitive....Which is a great
quality at times, but annoying at others.
I haven't heard anything new yet...He's
still at school. I really hope he's ok.
He's going to need more hugs today, I
just know it! :d

month old and that would crush my heart

I'm demanding my son never associate with
girls. Haha,
kidding! |
he's determined to get her!!! They sit
beside each other in computers so he says
he wants to try again :lol:
good luck with the girl thing... Well it
could happen... Lol....Jj
regarding the kisses and hugs.... I'm
lucky he still wants them(even at school)
thanx jamie
