Cai, here is my 7 year old DD's conversation with DH a few days ago: (m is hubby, k is DD)
m: Whats up ?
k: I'm worried
m: What about?
k: About high school.
m: Why are you worried about high school now?
k: Because i'm scared that someone will ask me if i like pooh bear and if i say yes they will laugh at me and tease me.
m: Dont worry little one when your a teenager you wont care about bears anymore.
k: Yes i will. Will you still be with mummy when i'm a teenager?
m: Yes little one we're married so we'll always be together.
Dont worry about high school yet it's too early......
I thought it was so sweet, so glad she is worried about pooh bears and not stealing boyfriends!
But I often wonder about what goes through their little heads, I dont shelter her from the world too much, but at the age of 7 I really think they should still live in a fantasy world full of fairies and pooh bears. DD is also getting into her diary, boys etc, but not as advanced as your little one!
