OMG he is only 7!! He is still a young boy who is innocent. Your reaction would be making it worse. Let him be... would you be so worried if it was your daughter kissing another litte girl? Pls be careful that you don't make your son feel as though showing affection and love (which SHOULD come easily and naturally to a child) is wrong.

I find this hard to believe. Not the fact that your child is doing it, but the fact these boys allow him to do it to them. When I was that age a boy would get hell for for kissing another boy past the age of 3. If this is really happening meaning boys are letting him I fear our boys may be in more trouble than I thought.
Don't worry he will soon have a fist in his mouth or get made fun of so bad and then it will stop. Also keep in mind some schools might see this as sexual assault. I know it sounds crazy, but it has happened. Maybe try to get him into more boy things like sports. He will learn real quick that he can not go around kissing boys in those places.

All little boys go thru this just like my 6 yr old thought it was ok to kiss mommy on the lips like daddy does with his mouth open. we told him no that was in appropriate and that he should kiss mommy closed mouth on the cheek or lips but never opened mouth. he also liked to kiss his daddy on the mouth and showed him to kiss daddy on the cheek and he does no problems no issues. just tell him that most of his friends dont liked to be kissed especailly his boy friends and suggest a hug or hand shake like big boys do this could stop it right away..

why not ? Girls do,should be the same rules for boys.Male and Female are 50/50 if men do it,then women do it.....and if women do then the men can do the same.Men can have women jobs,and wear female clothing,and right on down then line,with both genders = EQUAL What happened to the womens rights movement of the 70's ? Were males included ? Or was it just one sided and hypocritical ? Im just curious .

Why not??? You are the one with the problem if you think it's nasty. He doesn't understand your rage.
You should tell him in a kind, loving way that not all people like to be kissed, and he needs to ask first if it's OK.

That's a good question....Have you asked him why he does it? Do you know who the other boys his age are? I think I would talk to the parents to see if they're aware of it also. It does seem strange. But you know kids are always experimenting with different things. A lot of times they really don't know any better. I hope that you're able to find a solution and it stops. Good luck to you.

Because kissing is a way that humans show love and affection to each other. Your son does not see anything wrong with it because you kiss him. I wouldn't punish him. Its going to teach him homophobia. And Lord knows the world has enough of that

At that age,he is still just an Innocent little boy showing affection-he'll grow out of it eventually. Don't be too mean to him-he's just being lovey.

I think he will grow out of it, the more you down it and disapline him for it , the more likly he is to do it. mabye show him how to shake hands or hug someone instead ? not sure but hopefully he will just grow out of it, when the other boys start making fun of him he will likly stop. good luck

that sure as hell ain't normal....... looks like your only choice is to send him to a child psychologist. But before long the other kids will probably start making fun of him + beating on him if he keeps it up.
Perhaps also might help to pack him off doing stuff with the Boy scouts to get him involved in doing more boy like stuff.
