Precocious or just confident?

Sounds like he’s been well brought up. Some children have an innate sense of being social and are confident.
My 11 year old GD introduced her class individually to the new class teacher when she was 7!

I think that was super.

He is very much into drama and music so I think that has made him like this.

My youngest GC (8 & 5yo) both do this. It’s an after effect of Covid, I think, when they were so deprived of company, they’d stop and talk to anyone!

I think I would be impressed as long as he did it in a kind considerate way,
your other son sounds a touch jealous/ envious.

It is certainly unusual behaviour for a child of that age but I wouldn’t label it precocious. Everyone is different and it is lovely that a child felt confident enough to do this. It should be encouraged.

When my 16 year old GS, obsessed with music and drama, went in for his interview at the Brits, before he sat down he went along the line of people on the interview panel and shook hands with each one.
He is autistic, not suggesting your GS is, but rarely have I found autistic youngsters to be ill mannered.

Polite boy. I would have felt proud of him.

I think it sounds ok, especially if it were to older family members who didn’t have a clue who he was.

“Hello, my name’s John, I’m Mary’s son, she was the niece of Auntie Flo whose funeral this is” or words to that effect.

If that were me, I would be thinking “Oh, so this is Mary’s son”…
