If these were your children what would you do? I would praise the girl for keeping her strong opposition to being kissed and if I were the boy's mother I would yank a knot in his tail and get him away from the girl.

Yank a knot in his tail? You see aggression in a toddler's act? I think it's sweet.

I think it's a tad early to begin worrying about having him put on the sex-offender list. The girl in question doesn't seem to be in short of confidence or the ability to stand up for herself.

This has NOTHING to do with romance or rejection. What a tempest in a teapot.

That was cute. I don't see any harm. Toddlers don't know how to be PC, thank goodness.

I see it as annoying and relentless, certainly not as sexual. He was being a Pain in the Arse and should have been held back at some point. the little girl was getting ticked and I don't blame her.

The kid is relentless and annoying. One of his parents should have stopped him.

I agree. The little girl was very able to stand up for herself, but toddlers should not have to do that.

Parent - put that camera down and stop him and explain that she doesn't like what he is doing and that means he should stop.
