Kids do ask a lot of question. My 5 year old boy is no exception. He loves bombarding me with difficult to explain type of inquisitions. A couple of months ago, he asked me how are babies made. We go through the length of explaining about the meeting of sperm cells and the egg cells. I explained to him, in the most simple (without explaining the real act) way I can on how the egg is fertilized by the sperm cell. He was convinced but was angry with us. He says, we have to show him how..
Well after that, the baby making is out of the question. Now here comes the harder part, he suddenly asked how are people made. This is very different from how are babies made. Whenever I give him that answer he would just say, how about the one who made the baby? who made them? and I would answer, their mom and dad.. which he would reply, how about their mom and dad? who made them? in the end, he would talk about the mom of mom of my mom, who made them? how are they made.. and it is now clear to us that he is asking for the ORIGIN OF SPECIES..
WHAAAT!?! a five year old kid asking for that? oh yes he has his way on things, he is quite smart for his age I tell you, and most of the time he can out smart his dad (not me of course, I am way too clever for this boy)LOL
How can IĀ explain it to him? I am not a religious person and I don’t want to give the explanation from the bible and I am pretty sure that it would just lead to a more complex debate.
I want to explain to him the theory of evolution but proofs are not enough..
So his clever dad just told him, that we came from nose dirt.. yeah.. nose dirt..
although he did not believed what daddy said, his attention was diverted to nose dirt..
in time baby.. in time..
hahaha! ang cute naman nito… ang mga bata talaga, super curious. they would keep on asking you until they are satisfied with your answer. i guess when the time comes for samantha to ask that same question, i will also tell her she came from nose dirt. hehe!
now i know what to tell yena when she starts asking the same question..thanks for the tip! mwahnesscool tlga ni cata.. he is way too clever kesa sa'yo noh! bwhahha
hahaha so ung theory of evolution nalang? subukan mo kaya peh yung si malakas at maganda story .. . .
I remember I ask my mom of this question š
nose dirt! hahaha. yung baby ko sobrang matanong. sunod sunod parang walang katapusan
Marce na tense ako bigla, paano kung may mga tanong pa si Yena? si Yobib na lang din sagot waahaha
ahahahhahahha!!! kalokah!! anu ka parang fairies made of babies "first laugh" :))
OMG, I remember my cousin who is 12 and my daughter who is 9 asked me about what STD’s were and how it is contracted, I was literally squirming in my seat.. š My hubby and I decided that he should give that talk with the kids when the day comes, he’s better with explanations.. š
I almost fell off my seat when I read nose dirt! (o_O)
my nephew once asked, “kung ako at si ate sam eh galing sa tummy ni mommy, e si bea san galing? sa tummy ba ni ninang?”
i was laughing alone when i received my sis sms abt it because the little boy was referring to my 4 year old lab retriever whom we call baby at home…kala nya kase magpinsan talaga sila š
Hahaha he has a very good point after all asking that sort of question ^_^
