I just answered questions matter - of - factly when asked and gave "THE" talk when it was time. I think Teen was a verRRRy smart young man because when he was 5 and at a doc's visit with me he saw a picture of sperm and asked me what it was. I said "A male fish." He said "Liar, that's sperm." From that point on I have made it a point to be HONEST about all their questions just in case. ;) I never used a book.

I vacationed in Florida recently with a gal who has a 'dotter' adopted as yours and I think they're about the same age! Such a small world. Anyway I told her to check out your site as you 2 Moms have much in common... Glad that sex ed talk time in my parenting life is over. Hey, been thinking about you.

We have all the Robie Harris sex books. M loves to read Its not the stork from time to time. The only part she regularly gets stumped by is the picture of the un*circum*cized pe*nis. She is always dragging that book out and asking someone to tell her how to pronounce it. hahaha! We have all the Robie Harris sex books. M loves to read Its not the stork from time to time.

What really amused me no end was that I brought it to my library (where I also worked at the time) and showed the head of the children's department. She seemed a little surprised that I was reading that book to a five year-old. (As for the menstruation thing, she has interrupted me in the bathroom often enough to have at least a vague notion of what menstruation is. Heh.) I love that book, and read it to H last year.
