Does your child show interest in marrying you?

Question

If they do please let me know how old... my son totally says all the time he wants to marry me still. Hes 8

Answer

Yep. I just tell him I'm already married to daddy and you don't marry someone in your family.

Answer

I think it's pretty normal for little kids to say they want to marry mommy/daddy. If he was still saying it at 13, then I might be concerned. But 8? Nah.

Answer

Myself and my 4 year olds dad are getting married in 19 days and everyday he asks "when are we getting married" he thinks we all get married 😂

Answer

Absolutely normal. Children perceive that marriage is for the person of the opposite gender you love most in life. They don't understand that nor do they experience that the love you have for a person you marry is a romantic love. As previous poster said, reassure him that you love him, but explain that marriage is not for family members. As he gets older, he will understand more and more the concept of romantic love and will have all sorts of other questions for you as he sorts all of this out in his mind.

Answer

I have a girl but I hear it's very common
