Yeah Callaway i think especially if a kid is becoming inquisitive they should be given a sensible more realistic reply, sure they may be too young to know ALL the ins and outs, but you still dont need to lie, there are ways of explaining most things even to young kids. It great to hear you taught your daughter, i find not too many parents do explain these days here, or they dont explain well enough, they seem to just leave it to the school or for kids to find out the hard way, which is utter stupidity especially with the way things are in todays society. My mum taught me and my bro very young, me alot earlier than my bro though (which was lucky considering i started puberty/menstruating very very early) but basically i had this habit of putting my foot in it and correcting adults when they told porkies to other kids about conception and giving birth.
Yes even though she was naive when actually planning to concieve me given the situation, then fell accidently with my bro and thought he was a bladder infection, my bro and i are def the best things to come out of her marriage (including hardening/experience/knowledge im sure) but yeah we both know that and so does she, infact we were pretty much all that was left considering the sperm donor aka biological father, ran away with all the cash, including money that was in a fund to set me up for life when i was older etc lol and well she wouldnt have been here if i hadnt been born given when i was still a kid and it was finally over with dad and her (the big showdown) she sat on the bed with pills and all, and i was the only one there (minus my bro who was a toddler) so i had to talk to her, make things seem better, and get her to change her mind. She always used to say i was the little person who kept her going and stopped her from ending things (which was soo embarassing). Personally i think i deserved aknowledgement more for looking after my baby brother due to the "projectile vomitting" and always choosing to wee as you changed his nappy.
But yes no more mention of me etc.
Hey maybe your daughter will be like me Callaway if a teacher tries the stork story, "erm no miss its not like that cause what actually happens is.........."
phobia.
