Oh mother. Can someone help me understand why my mother keeps making such a big deal about the fact that I've taught Noah he has a penis instead of whatever stupid nickname people like to call 'em? Before he started saying penis, she kept telling me that she knew what I was trying to do (what??) and making it seem like a mistake to teach him to

I'm not sure why penis is so bad. It's far better than him talking about his cock or pecker.

Exactly. He's going to call it something so why not have it be what it's actually called? If he's going to be one of those kids who randomly shouts about his body part, I'd much rather he shout penis than "Weeeenerrrrrr!!!"

because obviously it should have a special name, you could call it Javier and he could pretend it wears a Mexican wrestler mask and yells things like I AM TOUGH I SPIT MILK....

wait I'm pretty sure calling it a penis is better, and if a teacher is mad about a student saying penis (you know aside from obvious propositioning) then I'd be having a word with the school. However because I am like a child I would take every opportunity to use the words "penis" and "vagina" and "vulva" and "scrotum" in conversations with her.

lol...nice touch on spitting milk :)

Joey and I were talking about that...if he got in trouble for simply saying penis, we'd be having a word with the school.

Whoa, that is just NOT acceptable Cassie! Hahaha, jk.

Thank goodness my mom's not like that because Leah knows VAGINA and PENIS! Haha. She can point out most of her body parts (and mine, and her daddy's, and the kittens', and her baby dolls'- both male and female, and anatomically correct!)

I don't get it. People get pissed that we EDUCATE our kids now?! Ugh!!

Oh hush you breastfeeding freak! :-P
Noah doesn't know vagina...hell, I'm not even sure if I'm going to teach Lily vagina or vulva. People refer to it as a vagina so commonly that it just feels more right to say vagina. Anyway, vagina hasn't come up here. He goes into the restroom with me but he never points out my vagina so I've never mentioned it. My mom makes it seem like I rip his diaper off and point to his penis shouting penis at him lol

Sakke says, "This my PENIS!" sometimes when we're in the public sauna together *hides* Your mom would totally LOVE that!

[giveitfullheart]

lol! That would embarrass my mom so much!

Well silly girl, didn't you know that you're supposed to teach kids that the proper names for their body are embarrassing so they grow up thinking sex is dirty.

For some reason the twins used to call their penis a T-waller. I still don't understand why. Now we have two eight year olds who say penis every chance they get because they are only now allowed to say it.

That's what I'm trying to avoid...the middle/high school boy shouting penis because it's omg so funny and dirty! I still feel awkward saying penis in front of my mom. It feels so dirty. I don't want my kids to feel dirty talking about a body part.
