A couple of years ago I was driving three 6-year-old boys home from a playgroup that my colleague were and I were facilitating. One of the boys in the back was telling me how there was this girl at school who all the boys chase because they wanted her to be their "girlfriend." The boys started talking about how girls were "gross" and how they didn't understand why anyone would want a girlfriend, etc. You know, little boy stuff....
One of the boys who was sitting in the front seat was not contributing to the conversation at all, and as a "Social Skills Facilitator" I took it upon myself to get him involved. I asked him:
"So what do you think about the whole "girlfriend" thing? Do you ever see this at your school?"
He answered very nonchalantly:
"I don't know, but sometimes when I'm around girls my penis feels like its in love....."
After I almost drove the car into the ditch, I replied with,
"Oh yeah, sometimes that happens, but that is more of a "private thought" that you want to keep inside your head"
Then I told him that if he had any questions about that it would be best to talk to his parents....
Although, life might be easier if all guys were this honest.
