You should respect it, because it could be true, I certainly knew I wouldn't enjoy dating or anything like that when I was 9, but there is of course the chance it's wrong. As much as I hate the too young argument, as it only harms young asexuals, I feel it may actually be applicable here. Either way, support your child through whatever they believe their sexuality is, it can do them no harm to identify as asexual. November 03, 2020 at 11:38PM
