They say all’s fair in love and war, but did they ever think about an age limit? Try telling that to a young girl who has gone viral after playfully telling her parents about her “boyfriend.” Of course, it’s all in good fun, and it’s clearly just a friend, but her parents don’t seem entirely convinced as they lightheartedly press her for details. What follows is so adorable, you might want to watch it more than once.

The charming little girl starts by making the day’s big announcement: “I had a boyfriend,” she says in the cutest voice. Her mom, clearly surprised and recording the moment, asks in disbelief, «You had a what?»

Without missing a beat, the toddler confidently repeats herself.

“Is he cute? What’s his name?” her mom asks, curious to hear more. The little girl agrees he’s a handsome boy but struggles to remember his name, trying her best but drawing a blank.

Then there’s her dad, and let’s just say, he takes his «daddy’s little girl» role seriously. Despite her excitement, he’s not amused by the idea of a boyfriend.

As she tries to recall the boy’s name, her dad cuts in, saying, «Is he ready to die? Where does this kid live? I’m going to hurt him.» Well, that escalated quickly! But could we expect any less from a protective dad? At least it’s clear he’s willing to go to great lengths for his daughter. Heads up, Dad—this might only get tougher as she grows up!

Bravely, the little girl tells her dad that hurting her boyfriend isn’t allowed, firmly telling him not to even think about it.

“Why not?” her mom asks, playing along. The toddler replies innocently, “Because I don’t want daddy to hurt him.”

While people may argue about things like climate change, one thing’s for sure: this little girl is melting hearts with her sweetness. Her adorable outfit and tiny cup just add to the charm, making the moment that much more delightful.

The video wraps up with a big reveal: after some thinking, the girl finally remembers her boyfriend’s name—it’s Jack!
