Tiny Brontosaurus posted:This is a really common thing with kids and it's why the current trend is to teach kids about "tricky people" instead, people who tell lies or want something from them. I think there's a worry that teaching kids to avoid all strangers could lead to them not asking for help if they're lost or in trouble. There's a super dark plot thread in the movie Short Cuts about this. That movie is brutal on 90s parenting in general. Also parenting in general

At a family gathering a friend's 5 year old announces loudly to everyone "Do you know what... My grandad, he can't walk", her parents explain that her great-grandfather has had an operation and now needs a wheel chair. A minute later she turns to my Granddad and asks "Can you walk?". Also looking at her dinner plate "That's too much for me, I only have a little mouth". Which is ironic as she's the most outspoken kid I've ever met.

If you really, really can't decide between two options then there's obviously not much difference between them in terms of how much you'll enjoy it so, gently caress it, just pick one. Flip a coin if you have to.

Apropos of absolutely nothing, in the middle of class: TOM: "Fleta, we have a naked picture." ME: "Oh, yeah? Who is it?" JAYDEN: "Justin Bieber." ME: "Ew, no thanks." RIHANNA: "Why not?" ME: "He's not my type." FRANK: "What is your type?" ME: Christian Bale in the 1994 version of Little Women. "Uhhh, smart. I like smart men." *a pause* SIMON: "Oh, HAWKING! You love Hawking!" ME: ".....okay." P.S. I did not look at the picture of Justin Bieber. P.P.S. Rihanna Photoshopped a picture of their (female) class head teacher to look like Stephen Hawking. P.P.P.S. Rihanna just informed me that her presentation team's name is Walnut Milk Butt. P.P.P.P.S. "Can we do our presentation on prosthetic penises?" (Fine with me, tbh, if it exists.)

Okay, sorry for the double post after adding all those edits to the last one, but this deserves its own entry: "Condoms" won over "prosthetic dicks" in the coin toss, so I suggested they look at Latex alternatives. ME: "Some people are allergic to the material they make most condoms out of. For example, Durex." FRANK: "What about Jissbon?" ME: *trying and failing not to smile* "Yes, like Jissbon." RIHANNA: "Why are you laughing?" ME: "Well, 'Jissbon' sounds funny to native English speakers." Long story short, I explained the etymology as best I could. ME: "So, um, when people finish having sex, that's the name we have for the stuff that comes out of the man's penis." FRANK: "What's a penis?" *Sam punches Frank in the crotch* FRANK: "OKAY I UNDERSTAND." RIHANNA; "It's what I have and you don't!" FRANK: "WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?" Then Rihanna insisted I draw a condom for her. I didn't.

Considering Rihanna was willing to lead a revolt against the school administration, while I was a big(ger) wimp in my own secondary school days, I'd say she's got what I don't got too

My 5-year-old daughter suddenly grew attached to the Rudolph the Reindeer doll that we have, so we put on that old Rudolph movie. After the abominable snow monster whacked Rudolph on the head and knocked him out, my daughter started crying. "Why did he make Rudolph's HP go to 0?!"

I really hope they come up with some useful information about condoms, since they don't have sex ed here.

My five-year-old asked if i wanted a picture of hers to hang up at work, and of course I said OK. She started dealing out a handful of cute pictures, typical stuff she likes to draw — cats on playgrounds, penguins, etc.., but topped off the stack with this: "You can hang this one on your door! It's a poop-splosion!"
