I dealt with this appallingly

My four year old son had a bath earlier, and as I was helping him into his pyjamas, I noticed something shiny .... in his bellybutton.

I pulled it out, and it was a tiny bolt from a Meccano set.

I said, quite sternly

"Do not put bolts into your belly buttonnnnnnnbwaahhhhhhhhhh ha ha ha ha!!!!!!"

Now he will think putting things into his bellybutton is the funniest thing in the world.

Can he actually damage himself?

no not really

it could be worse... when my DS was 4 and put his pants on but left his willy poking out, for some insane reason I started talking in a silly willy voice saying "hey - put me back in, I'm cold" etc etc - he found this SO HYSTERICAL - he still - a year or more later, deliberately leaves his willy hanging out of his pants and asks me to do the "willy voice", even though I haven't done it even once since the first time Blush

nickschick - do you teens still have problems with putting on their own underwear Grin? - I now have horrible premonitions of DS as a teenager, prancing around with willy out, saying "do the voice mum..remember that time?" in front of vistors!

I got a tiddlywink stuck up my nose when I was that age. I'd much rather it had been in my belly button.

nickschick · 08/10/2010 11:29

Lol .....no they wear their undies now at all times specially since ds2 was caught doing a willy dance and dh got v Angry and the best reason he could come up with was 'your mother might see' Hmm

Madascheese · 08/10/2010 11:41

arf!

We collectively gave Littlemad a lecture about how he shouldn't show his willy to people because it was private so now we occasionally catch him standing with his back to us and his trousers down,

'What are you doing littlemad?'

'Showing my willy to the radiator, but NOT to people Mummy'

He thinks he's being very clever.

Boys!

Madascheese · 08/10/2010 11:42

Incidentlly littlemad is 4 - not 24 just in case anyone was wondering...

Stinkermink · 08/10/2010 11:51

My pelvic floor can't take this thread. I'm crying with laughter. I told my DS that the dog would eat his willy if he saw it hanging out as he'd think it was a sausage. I think i' ve traumatized both dog and child.

WillYouDoTheDamnFanjo · 08/10/2010 11:53

sleepwhenidie... thank you for the "willy voice" story! Wiping tears of laughter here!

PandaEis · 08/10/2010 12:09

sorry but Grin at your DS2 nicksGrin

my mum walked in on/caught my brother doing a naked willy dance in his room last yearGrin it was to the tune of michael jacksons thriller...my brother is 26Shock Grin

Over40 · 09/10/2010 20:03

When my DD was little (3 or 4) I used to bath with her every night. It got to the point when she wouldn't let me in unless I had done the "dance". This comprised of me singing "Big Spender", stripping my clothes off and ending with twirling my knickers round and round! Grin. For the life of me I can't remember how we got in the habit in the first place!

Grumpla · 11/10/2010 22:00

Oh no. The willy voice. No. aches with laughter

nemofish · 12/10/2010 11:22

"Spend a little tiiiiiime wiiiith meeee,"
Duh duh der-derder-der-DUH!

twolittlemonkeys · 12/10/2010 11:36

Am PMSL and so glad it's not just my DS. (also 4) At football on Saturday, he was over the far side of the pitch and another little boy (apparently) told him to show his willy so he whipped down his trousers and pants and squealed "Willyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!" much to DH's embarrassment. I was glad I was with DS2 who was having a nap in the car

SolidGoldBrass · 12/10/2010 11:40

Bwahahahahaha! Yes, have been various shades of there with my DS who is equally fond of his willy.
