what's up with private parts, anyway?
we are obsessed at our house.. i mean really obsessed!
i guess i always thought that when it became an issue that the talk about the parts would be brief and clear. private parts are just that: private. enough said.
but nothing is ever brief or clear when dealing with a five year old, especially mine. the questions always come:
"well, can i show aiden my penis when we are at the park?"
no.
"can i show him my penis when we are going wee wee together?"
no, wait. when were you going wee wee together? should you even be doing that? i guess that's all right.. but no, the answer is still no.
"but....can aiden and i make a secret club called the Private Parts Club where we just talk about our penises together?"
um...what?!

I do no know why the fact that YOUR son wants to discuss his private parts is such a shock. You talk about private parts all the time.
PLUS. Don't men always show each other their penises in the bathroom? I thought that was the primary venue for size comparison.
L, I happen to be personally familiar with E's fascination with "private parts".... I remember it like it was yesterday... it was the jumphouse.... it was evening...a birthday party. When I was told by E that I was going to be kicked in my "VAGINA"... wow! good times... Liz.
Or of course there was the time when walking down the street a loud shrieking sound bellowed downwind. Looking up, I witnessed E's naked body pressed against the large unobstructed window. Very nice. Liz.
