Reply To: Discussion on age of three at maximum age at which an uncle can touch a niece

Holding the hand to cross the street you can do for an old lady, too. But anything you cannot do with a 28 year old lady an uncle (or any non-relative) cannot do with his niece (or any girl) once she is three years old, according to the Chofetz Chaim. The other shitta is from the Chazon Ish who holds it is no later than when she reaches age seven, but may be an earlier than that age if she’s bodily more mature beforehand.
