CAN I TICKLE YOUR BOOBIES?
Monday, November 16, 2009
Those were the words uttered by my 4 year old son, TK. Thank goodness he was asking me and not some unsuspecting poor lady. He has always been a butt man, but now, for some reason, he is now infatuated with boobies and constantly seeks to squeeze a few.
Now, let me make it clear, TK is an absolute darling. Whenever I start getting stressed, he will come over and give me a hug and kiss and say "You're okay". He now knows how to make his own bed and believe it or not, he always puts the toilet seat down once he's done. I truly believe he will make someone a very good husband someday, lol! (not that the factors I mentioned are the only one that make a good husband, of course). He wants to learn how to cook and he is very protective of his siblings, in fact, if anyone gets disciplined, he will tell them sorry, then come up to his dad or myself and say "You know, that is not how you talk to little babies. That is not nice."
Cute right?
But this desire of his to "tickle" boobies is quite disturbing and in my opinion, a little unbecoming of a wonderful gentleman. I keep having these visions of him asking some little girl if he can tickle her boobs and my hubby and I getting slapped with a lawsuit! lol! My goodness. Husband tells me that I stress out about the silliest things, and this might be one of them but come on, if you knew a little 4 year old boy that kept asking to "tickle" boobs, tell me you wouldn't worry at least a little bit? Of course, my husband just loves his son's peculiarities to bits. I think its because of all his children, TK not only looks just like him, but behaves like him as well.
So, this is what I am dealing with now, trying to figure out the best way to help my son realize that his infatuation with boob squeezing has a time and a place. Gosh, he clearly likes boobs, but I would like him to realize that someday he will be able to, oh I don't know, enjoy them. With the right girl of course, and that girl ain't me. Oh my, *smh*

Buhahaha!
'Mummy please may i squish your breastses' LMAO!
It's hilarious, but I think it's right for you to be weary. You have to caution him about the things that socially acceptable and not. Don't let Hubby make you think you're too uptight o. Lol.
Happy Mothering this week. It's always very eventful for you.

Hmmm...serious something o!
I have no experience whatever! But i think i know kids know when you're telling them something serious! Might be time you had a heart to heart with Tk, just you and him and try to tell him why he shouldn't do it...lol
All the best!
November 16, 2009 6:57 AM
I can only laugh...hehehe! I know it's kinda serious but it's also kinda funny too. lol!
You should make sure you let him know what's appropriate or not but then don't sweat it. I'm sure he'll outgrow it...of course at least until he grows up enough....I'm sure you get. Lol!

Lol.we actually just learnt child curiousity in my psche class.don't let him know that it's such a big deal or his going to get really curious at such a young age.laugh and say mummy doesn't like having her breasts tickled.
Lol....I have no experience what so ever with kids oh!!!take my advise with a pinch of salt.but this was really hilarious.I love TK.
November 16, 2009 7:54 AM
this TK is something else...he he he...
November 16, 2009 8:25 AM
Ha! Ha! Ha! I am still laughing. Whao! TK!
Now I am done laughing. TK did not mean to offend any morals. Find some time and have a "little" chit chat with TK on this matter.

I think it's just the right time to let gently caution him and playfully redirect his 'tickly' question.

these kids get some memo that bypasses us..lmao
well, i would say don't be too distraught,it's the age..and do not shame the poor boy,he'll get past it tho u can hasten it by smiling and saying things like..'sweet,you are no longer a baby, so no breast' then immediately distract him by giving him something else to obsess abt..
