Friend's 6.5yo--education!  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Our friends came to visit for the first time since Lina was born, and their 6.5 yo thought she was the greatest thing since his PS3 (this is a very electronic child ).

Some highlights:
Him: Is the baby sleeping? Are you sleeping, baby?
Me:No, she's eating, see how her mouth is moving?

Him:She eats from you?
Me: Yes, she eats from my breasts.
Him: Those things on your chest...(his mom: nipples)...your nipples, they're like a straw. Do all people make milk to drink?
Me (simplifying drastically): Just mommies. Mommies make milk until the baby doesn't need it anymore.

And we talked about how all mammals, even dolphins and things, make milk.

Good job on the explanation! I love getting those opportunities with young children before they become shy about asking!:
