rutting............ erotica's valentine's post mentioned sperm - you must read it! and it got me thinking about a conversation with my tenant about truth and fairy tales and . susan is 5 and very articulate.....she came home one day from kindergarten and said she had a baby in her tummy. her mom asked how it got there and she said josh had put it there. her mom did a good explanation of process and susan looked at her and said, well then i guess, i'll have to ask him to do that tomorrow. can you imagine the look on josh's face?? which takes me to my own precocious who gave sex education classes complete with condoms (stolen from my office!) on the playground at recess. the principal called me in and asked me to speak with him about it and then said as i left...his information is actually right on.. another time, he had a sleepover and we watched look who's talking. if you all remember, the first scene is sperm - hence my odd connection - swimming to an egg. one of his friends asked what they were and my said "sperm".. what are sperm? that's what come out of your penis when you get excited COME OUT OF MY PENIS? yeah, but not until you get older oh why? why what? why does it come out of my penis? so you can make a baby WHAT? yeah, you shoot it into the lady WHAT? yeah.......in her pee hole uproarious laughter ensued and then we watched the movie and had a pie eating contest the next day i get a call from the mom of one of the boys. she wants me to come to her house IMMEDIATELY when i get there...she asks me what happens and i merrily tell the tale thinking how cute it had all been. she looks at me with ice in her eyes. "I DO NOT WANT MY THINKING OF ME RUTTING LIKE A PIG IN THE BACK YARD" huh? oh well.......sperm always seems to make a mess, eh? so did you tell your the truth or a fairy tale? and how old were they when they first broached the subject? You cannot conceive the many without the one. |

With one at age 19 and the other twoo ages 9 and 11, its been a learning curve for all of us. I answer questions directly without faireytales but its interesting when all of us get in on the topic. My 9yr old seems to be the most informed.

No kids here...and can't say I'm sorry to have missed out on having to have "the talk" - hee. Although it sounds like you did really well with your son - good for you!

There really ain't much reason to discuss sex with kids. Most have the mechanics of it quite well figured out by the time we think they're just about ready for little league or ballet classes. The problem these days ain't that kids have it figured out... it's the fact they have it figured it out by the time they're 8; and we think they're not ready until they can get their own insurance underwritten (ah... that we could only pull that one off; eh?) I think there's some mid-point, somewhere, there; but I can't swear to it. Sex education is a lot like youth--it's wasted on the young. Parents are the ones in need of the education; and judging by the current trends evidenced in all these sexually-overexposed rug-rats, birth control woulda helped immensely with that issue... had it been used before they surfaced. Ya know, we: they've actually proven child-rearing to be the only effective preventative to sex?  Solar...

I delegated this task to the mother of my only daughter and went fishing.

My mom was an RN. It was drilled into my brothers and me to use the clinical terms for everything -- so there was no farting, pooping, peeing, etc., around our house. The sex talk came the first time our parents heard the words "sex" or "fuck" uttered from our mouths (whenever we'd picked it up from an older neighborhood kid). In the instance of my younger brother, he heard my farmer grandpa yelling "cocksucker!" at a stubborn cow. So, I suppose by the time we were seven, we were pretty bored of the whole discussion.
