Having established he found out about them on the Internet I made a mental note to check parental controls I stammered my way through a child friendly explanation, whilst his horror visibly increased, as did my own trauma.

He then asked about the duck ones his father had brought home a while ago.

Turns out he was thinking about Stress toys.

We have agreed to Brain bleach and never speak of this again.

I wish I still drank.

I've said we can discuss it again when he's 17, hopefully he won't want too.

Aaaaaargh.


It was awful.

I thought I was a liberal approachable parent. Turns out I have my limits.

Honey - it's a good job you didn't take him straight to the Love Honey website, where video demos ("The Hands") manipulate various marital accessories, to demonstrate their pliability and feel.

His face would have been Shock for the next three days.

Tee. I didn't mis hear. I clarified he meant sex.

He gets words confused.

When he complained about his tentacles hunting instead of testicles that was cute.

Confusing sex toy with stress toy. Well, that's just the conversation to make you beat yourself to death with your own leg.

I have to know, what was your child friendly explanation?!

Report
HoneyDragon · 06/08/2013 17:07

Erm.
It started with When two people love each other. I may have mentioned tickling. Mostly I burbled a lot about him being 10 for FFS.

You know that thread at the moment about jaw dropping things people say?

Your DS will be on it in a few years time talking about the time that he asked his mum about stress relievers & she started talking about dildos Grin Grin Grin

That's hilarious though
