What Kids Think

Sticker Snicker

“ Kissing:     "When a person gets kissed for the first time, they fall down, and they don't get up for at least an hour." -- Wendy, age 8     "You should never kiss a girl unless you have enough bucks to buy her a big ring and her own VCR, 'cause she'll want to have videos of the wedding." -- Jim, age 10     "Never kiss in front of other people. It's a big embarrassing thing if anybody sees you. But if nobody sees you, I might be willing to try it with a handsome boy, but just for a few hours." -- Kally, age 9     "You learn [how to kiss] right on the spot when the gooshy feelings get the best of you." -- Doug, age 7     "If it's your mother, you can kiss her anytime. But if it's a new person, you have to ask permission." -- Roger, age 6     "It's never okay to kiss a boy. They always slobber all over you. That's why I stopped doing it." -- Tammy, age 10     "I know one reason kissing was created. It makes you feel warm all over, and they didn't always have electric heat or fireplaces or even stoves in their houses." -- Gina, age 8     "The law says you have to be eighteen, so I wouldn't want to mess with that." -- Curt, age 7     "The rules goes like this: if you kiss someone, then you should marry her and have kids with her. It's the right thing to do." -- Howard, age 8     (on seeing a couple kissing) "He is trying to steal her chewing gum!" -- Boy, age 6 [more] ”
