You rock, and your kid rocks too!

It's more like; there will be 3 girls, and 3 guys, and one of the girls or guys will be new, but the other 5 will have an established relationship of either friendship or antagonism/sexual tension. Something will bring them together (dark witch evil, murderer in town, extortion from neglectful parent) and they will…
Not really.
As painful as it is for me too admit, I tried watching Scandal and hated every second of it, but I'm so glad to see it's a successful show. Nothing makes me happier to see successful shows by a black person not named Tyler Perry.
I have a three month old. I don't know you, but you just became my parenting role model.
This is such a telling story, and one that I've been trying to grow out of myself. I still get internally embarrassed watching sex scenes in action movies (Bond is obviously a hot button) because it feels like my dad is still in the room to this day, making evvvvvveryone uncomfortable.
I'm glad this effort failed. I mean, I understand that Spain is virtually-problem free and, you know, idle hands and all that but just because there aren't any actual problems in Spain doesn't mean that they should devote their time to trying to deal with the non-existent problem of women having too much reproductive…
My childhood friend's mom used encourage her daughters to call it a cookie. As in, "did you wipe your cookie after you peed?". It bothered me then at age 7 because WHY CALL IT A COOKIE?!! It's not anything like a cookie.
I like how you have over eight hundred stars for this.
When I was growing up, I was told that my vagina was to be referred as as "the boogey." This was coined by my aging grandmother, who somehow got a say in this matter. I had no idea that this was not a normal thing because I was also very sheltered and not allowed to interact with other children outside of school.
That is awesome! My parents never used pretend words to refer to body parts and it drives me nuts when adults do. If you had a kid you used those parts, get over the embarrassment already!
My mom, a nurse, took the same tack. I shocked lots of ladies at church because I was an early talker. She didn't care. Correct words are correct.
I love that so much. I have two boys, and we have always just said "penis" - it never occurred to me to call it something else. And when my son saw me getting dressed and asked where my penis was, I just told him that girls don't have a penis, they have a vagina, and moved on. We never used made up names growing up,…
I used to teach preschoolers. While pregnant, one of my 2-year-olds starts a conversation with "That baby is going to come out soon, isn't it?" "That's right!" I said, and then jokingly: "How do you think she's going to get out? My belly button?"
My friend always hesitated to use the word vagina, only because the vagina is only part of it and perhaps the least visible, at that. So to her two daughters she would use the word 'genitals' when discussing genitals generally. "Don't hit your sister's genitals!"
My favourite story about my dad is when he tried to use a technical definition to squirm out of one of these conversations... I was about 8 when we were on a walk together. I'd heard older girls at gymnastics talking about periods but didn't know what they were. To his horror I decided to ask him. After a stunned…
I was talking with my s.o. last night about this: http://www.click2houston.com/news/many-upse…
My Mother in Law tells one of my all-time favourite stories about this kind of thing:
When my daughter was four she asked what her "front butt" was called. And I told her that it was her labia. And she said, "LABIA?!!? THAT'S a STUPID name! I'm gunna call it HOT LAVA instead." After I died from trying to choke back the laughter, I reminded her we don't say stupid.
