Toddler and sexual behavior

[zanecolton]

I have a toddler in my daycare who is exhibiting odd behavior at his home.  According to his mother, the behavior only occurs with women or girls.  he points his finger and demands they go to their room, lay down on the bed, and put their head down.  Then he gets on top of them and holds their face in his hands and passionately kisses them.  He has exhibited this behavior with women: his mother, grandmother, auntie, two neighborhood teen girls, and a doll.  He has never exhibited this behavior at daycare.  The mother wanted to know where he learned the behavior but because he doesn't do that at daycare I wasn't aware of the behavior.  I am a school counselor and I told her that children will mimic what they see on tv or at home and that she shouldn't be too concerned.  However, because he has done the behavior with neighborhood girls, I am a bit more concerned.  When he is at daycare, he is a normal, happy boy with normal toddler behaviors such as not sharing and pushing.  I am curious as to why he will do the behavior at home but not at daycare?  Also, why he does the behavior only with women and not men?  I appreciate any advice or ideas.  Thank you.

I agree in young children this is what is the puzzling part everyone says its "Normal" but when they are that young, would seem like it is copied and learned behavior,

Nothing else happens except the kissing from what I understand.  I wondered too if a girl showed him how to do this.  He is only 2 1/2 though which troubles me.

It sounds to me like a girl showed him this. For he only goes for females. A teen girl or older. I don't think another toddler showed him. How do you know he exhibits this behavior at home and not at day care? How old is the boy? I am sure with proper guidance he will stop or grow out of it. But I don't know how old he is. Maybe he just seen it on tv and likes to kiss. Does anything else happen besides kissing?
