My son asked me "what is an orgasm"!!!!!!.How do you explain that one ? I think I coped.The other one was (please no-one whoosh ) he had a Claire Raynor book that had pictures and one was one of an erection.He came running in to me and said "mum, you can tell Dad he will have one of these!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He did Marion - he did ... lots of embarassing questions over the years (he's 29 now!). I followed what my mum did for us which was to answer the question as honestly as possible. Not to go any further than the answer mind 'cos sometimes he had asked the wrong question and it just confused things!

I was really glad when he reached the awful teenage phase of not wanting to talk about that sort of stuff - what a relief that was!

I think if a child asks a question then he or she deserves a sensible answer but aimed at the age they are. They don't need to know everything all at once!

I dread to think what he will come out with next.

Reminds me of the time when a friend of mine was answering my son's question on childbirth. He listened very attentively (he was about 5 or 6) and then asked "When I was born did mummy have to take her jeans off?"

What age should kids be told? My 5 yr old grandson was asking his Dad a few questions.
One being was he in his mums tummy same time as his wee brother etc. He knows about a 'seed' but then asked his Dad if he had to put compost in his mums b*m to make it grow. :))))
I think he left it at that, couldn't speak for tears of laughter running down his face.
