5YO GIRLS & KISSING

My 5yo girl is constantly talking about boyfriends, getting married and kissing boys.  She changes her "crushes" regularly but does get very shy and giggly over whoever she is currently fond of.  She constantly talks about kissing and it is beginning to concern me.  I am a single mother and have lead a celibate life since she was born.  I monitor her TV closely, but ads in prime child viewing do show lots of kissing.  Is it normal for girls to talk about boys and kissing at this young age?

It does seem a bit young and like it is learned behavior, does she have a teenage Babysitter? and perhaps try to curtail the TV if its   full of those ads or at least try a side without.What about any older relatives or friends do any babysit her ., Ask her "Who else does that" when you are chatting kind if Casual like. Observe whats going on.

hi
i dont think that its normal as when girl start having changes she would feel about oppo. sex more. i think your 5 year old is too young. do you think you let her mix with older children who talk about these things. it could be family she is picking up or may be from nursery but defo. one thing is she is growing up quickly and not acting her age.
