No, but as Bond pointed out, children under the age of 12 will consider themselves bf/gf if they sit together at lunch everyday, o play together at recess. Usually the più "adult" aspects don't enter into the picture. I have a 10 anno old son who has plenty of girl friends; they like the same stuff(Legos, stella, star Wars), and there is nothing sexual going on. He is just not interested yet. He has asked me domande about sex, and if I've dato too much info, he lets me know. Which leads me to another point: adults will sometimes, perhaps inadvertently, make kids feel pressured into relationships. How many times will a boy and a girl play together, doing something neutral, an adult will then commento about the "relationship?" It happens so often, at least from my observations, that it's a wonder that boys and girls ever play together. One last thought: the kids I've known who have been preciously sexually active have all been sexually abused.
