chrangharris, I am tempted to search for that video. I gotta see it. lol. It sounds so cheesey!

It was very cheesy! It went on and the couple moved to the bedroom. There were cats on the quilt and the eyes moved in rhythm! I think my love of cats was to well developed to give me a complex about that!
The movie was tastefully done and age appropriate though!

When my friend was pregnant with her second baby, her first child - a boy, was 4. When I visited once, and she had a big belly already, I said: so, you're going to buy a babygirl (it's a funny way people say it here in front of very small kids). My godchild, the boy, looked at me and very seriously said: Nana Viorica, you're so big and you don't where the kids come from?
We all laughed, because I remembered that he was very well informed about how and why people have children. I think it is very right to tell kids about their bodies and later about contraception and sex and everything related to it. So many people try it too soon because they don't have any idea of what it is.

Just thought I would share the cute stories!

Could you not talk about S-e-x in front of the baby in your SIGGY?????

Aye... I don't think I ever had a "talk"... We watched a movie in 6th grade, learned all the "parts" and watched another video of a birth.

My parents were watching Law and Order or something, and this girl made a hand motion, referring to... ahem... a male masturbating. I immediately turned red, because my mom and dad were laughing and they asked me if I knew what she was doing. I just laughed. It's still awkward to talk about things like that with my parents, but sometimes I think they think I don't know about stuff, but what you hear in highschool... that's all the education I need!

Shall I wait until she is ten and pregnant??

I never really got the "talk" ether. But like Ilovemyabbygirl said, You get all the education you need in highschool, actually I should say, all the education that you really don't want. I get very embarrassed when I hear um...s-e-x talk. lol... let alone be mature about it. I guess its pretty immature of me.
But what can you do???

When my kids ask me I'm just going to put it on the level...
Answer there questions and leve it at that... mostly what I have found to be true is that if you just talk planly with kids then they will understand and make most conections on their own.
So just tell the truth and your kids will respect you for a long time... fib, refuse to tell and they'll dig in one way or another way, often the one way you don't want them to learn by... like getting pregnant, or a V.D... I know that I would reather just give my kids the talk, that way I would not have to hold there hand when thay get sick, pregnant, or like a good frend of mine DIE. My kids will be the future of me and my wife's blood line and will be our harts and souls, I just don't want to risk my kids lives on ignorance.

NOOOOOO!!!!!

Then half of Pet Talk will hunt you down!!!!

I agree with my husband. I also want to add that usually being dishonest to your kids tends to make them disrespect you later on in life. I know I had and still have a great deal more respect for my mom because she was so honest with me when I had questions to ask...not just about sex but with any subject

I'm glad so many people are looking after my little doll! Earlier today I was nursing her and DH came over to give me a kiss. She stopped nursing and looked up at us with a look that totally said, "EWWWW, gross, what are they doing!" We had to laugh and it reminded me of Richard's earlier comment!

Little does she know how she got here.....

[chrangharris]
