Now that the two youngest go to public school, they learn some things
that we’d rather they didn’t.
Such is life, I guess.
We talk it through with them, explain why certain things aren’t appropriate.
Lindsey learned something the other day.
“Mom, there is a really gross girl that says gross things in my class,”
she says, entirely seriously.
“What does she say?”
“She says, ‘{insert any name} went to China with a
dirty vagina.'”
(Can I write that on my blog?)
I tried not to, but I totally laughed.
What was I supposed to do?
“Yes, Lindsey, that is bathroom talk.”
(My attempt to bring it back to proper Mom-standards.)
HA! Yes the joys of public school. I can STILL remember in 4th grade riding in the car with my mother and telling her the kids (boys) on the playground kept saying a word I didn't understand.
"What was the word Lauren?"
"They kept talking about pussy. What's that?"
Yikes. That was then. I can only imagine now-a-days.
( I hope I didn't just get too dirty for the blog world, woops )
haha! that is pretty funny.
that is a pretty good one, you have to admit. hahaha good luck!!!
so funny! love these stories! 🙂
Haha! Kids are using "vagina" these days? How proper of them!
Hahaha!
Sometimes when my friends kids are being explained something or being disciplined I have to turn my face away because I am laughing. It's just so cute sometimes what kids say even when it's wrong!
p.s. I think it's okay to say vagina on your blog. haha
Whoa, what? How do 7 year olds know that word? And how to use it in such a gross/clever way?
1. I'm totally grossed out by whatever it is she's holding in that picture.
2. I can only imagine what it's going to be like when Syd is 'school age' . . .
it is a fish. i found it an appropriate picture to post with the story.
annnd i just got even grosser.
also, yes, kids are totally proper with their anatomy talk these days. no vajayjay talk in 2010. it's all about its rightful name.
Oh dear lord. I would have laughed too.
