I'm sorry- I have now CHOKED on my coffee and typed something that didn't make any sense on my laptop? I am forming a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach and a smile is creeping up on my face-- the one I get when I'm uncomfortable and don't know what to say...
- M: excuse me? you know what "what" is?
- K: Sex...tee hee hee..I know what that is
- M: well- what is it then?
- K: tee hee hee....
- M: ????well??
- K: it's when you get naked and go "mwa, mwa" (Kissing sounds) tee hee hee hee hee
- M: hmmm... well- you don't need to kiss anyone do you?
- K: no!
- M: and you only get naked in the bath and when you're changing clothes- not in front of other people right?
- K: Right! and the doctor....
- M: yes... right
- You're not in trouble...what else do you "know" about sex?
- K: That's it, I don't remember... Jaime at school told me (name changed to protect the innocent)
- M: well that is not something for kids to talk about. if that comes up again, tell them that's not appropriate and walk away. when you're an adult i'll talk to you about adult things. for now, let's be a kid and worry about learning how to ride your bike without training wheels...
- K: Ok mom
End of conversation--- but I've been haunted all day! :( Too bad they don't sell bubbles your can put your kids in...or a remote control, like in the movie "Click" that I could rewind and erase that she heard that...come on! She's in Kindergarten!!
Power to all the mom's out there and our quick on our feet thoughts to talk with our kids!
