Open Question: 7 years old with a foot fetish already?

[feedcrawler]

Okay, so here goes. My wife and I have an amazing 7 year old son. He does great in school and he loves an!mals and drawing and he's perfectly normal most of the time.But he LOVES feet. It started a few months ago. He came up to me while I was watching TV and asked me if he could lick my foot. I was obviously surprised by this and told him no, that it's dirty and we don't do that. Well, that made him cry and when I asked him what's wrong he said he really wanted to lick my foot because "he likes them". My wife was there and she tried to get him to elaborate but he wouldn't and we just told him that's not somethng he can do.iThen last week I found out he asked my brother the same thing at a barbecue at his house, and of course he refused to and went to tell us about it and when we went to find our son he was in their daughters little playhouse crying again and he said he really "wanted to lick Uncle Tommy's feet but nobody will let him."Well, we sat him down that night and had talk with him and asked him why he suddenly wants to lick everyone's feet and he said it "makes his peepee feel good to see feet". We asked him who's feet and he said just boys feet. He said he likes to look at feet on the computer sometimes too.We are considering counseling but we really don't know what to think. Is it possible for a kid to have a foot fetish so yovng? And why just men's feet? What would anyone else do in this situation?
