Your response was very appropriate, I think! And really - what she said was true. A lot of people probably look at her and think she'll be going to heaven soon. Your daughter just said it out loud, that's all!

Talk about embarassing - my son has said some real doozies!

When we first moved here he was about 4 or 5 (I can't remember right now). One day he just disappeared! I couldn't find him anywhere. I had all the neighbors out looking for him. Finally we found him a block away playing in a stranger's sand box.

I tried to explain to him about strangers and child molesters, and who to talk to and not to talk to and how he's not supposed to go anywhere without telling us first etc. etc. He was having a really hard time understanding what a stranger/child molester etc. was (especially because I didn't give him any details). So - I just told him everybody was a stranger until we said they weren't.

So one day our neighbor was over and we were talking to him, getting to know him. A very nice guy by the way. So Kyler comes up to me while Charlie was right there and yells "See, Mom - Charlie's nice! He's not really a child molester!"
