Biggest Parenting Mistakes

Kissing Curiosity
Laura says her 6-year-old son came home from school singing the song, "I Kissed a Girl." What started out as a few smooches on the playground has escalated. A teacher informed Laurie and her husband that their son and some classmates gathered in a circle, pulled their pants down and exposed their privates to each other. Her son cried when they asked him about it. Later, he was caught kissing more girls. She wants to know if this is normal behavior.
Pediatrician Dr. Jim Sears says it's nothing to worry about. "At 6 years old, when it's with kids the same age, not an older child or a younger child, generally, we just consider it curiosity," he says. "In your mind, it's the same as if he was picking all the other kids' noses: inappropriate. He's violating boundaries."
Dr. Phil agrees. "I think this is exploratory behavior. The big mistake parents make here is to either overreact or under react to this." He says the child needs to be taught where boundaries are, that it's inappropriate and rude behavior. "You don't want to shame a child about this … And if they have curiosity, then satisfy the curiosity at home with discussions, with books, whatever."
- Don't label the child
- Do teach personal boundaries

I suppose that would depend on what one considers short-lived for
that age.
Crushes definition (bing.com #4):
short-lived love: a temporary romantic attraction, especially in teenagers and young people ( informal ).
