So it finally happen. I was in the bathroom and my six year comes in to tell me he has to use it. (I think he has diarrhea, poor kid)
I finish my business and he asks me,"Where's your dick at?" I tell him I don't have one of those. He then asks,"Where are your nuts?" Again I told him I don't have those. I then told him that we say penis or manhood. Not dick. It does surprise me he said dick, since I use the term "manhood" with them and daddy uses the term "whacker dacker"
I don't know which surprises me more though. The fact he asked where was my dick or that he used the word dick.
How did the anatomy lesson go?
He must have heard the word from someplace. Kids ask weird questions.
Quoting conweis:I said it in my replies but he did not realize mommies were girls.
We have had that talk and he comes to my OB appointments to see the u/s and hear the heart beat. (none of my kids are in there for the vaginal examine) And yet some how it eluded him that I was a girl. I guess he assumed mommies were a different gender altogether.Quoting marchantmom06:
Ummm why does your 6 year old not know that women and girls don't have penis'???
Lack of parenting? Seriously? Get off your high horse, oh perfect parent. It is a minor, easily corrected issue that a little boy considered his mommy "a mommy" and didn't think to put a gender to her.
Quoting marchantmom06:
To me that would be a lack of parenting. My 4 year old has know for a long time the Difference between boys and girls. Being a mommy doesn't exclude you from a gender and at 6 he should know that.

Quoting conweis:My kids have been coming with me to the OB. Its a learning experience. No they are not in there during the vaginal check up, but do come in for the heart beat and the first u/s. I have explain the posters on the walls to them and they know girls have vaginas and boys have penises.
My six year old told me, he did not know I was a girl. He thought I was a mommy.... LOL!
Quoting ProudMom9799:gotta love boys...i'm not even sure which would have surprised me more either lol
Guess that's not what you wanted to know, huh?? Lol
