Dakota must have been 7 or 8, some firework holiday. We were shooting fireworks and had come inside. As we were settling in, Dakota announced rather than asked “y’all ready to have some fun now?” and lit one of those balls that you drop in the time to launch on the bar in the kitchen. Roman tackled Ryan over the couch and onto the floor, I chased Dakota into the bedroom cussing the whole way. The thing exploded and lit the house like a bonfire, only burning some curtains slightly. I can only imagine what it looked like from outside.

My parents were determined to educate me about sex and human biology as a kid so I got all kinds of sex-ed books and 'talks'. So after all this they were extremely dumbfounded when I thought everybody had a penis. "Girls don't have a penis." my parents said. "I thought they grew one later on." was my response. Can anyone tell me the true story because I'm still confused.

Hahaha! He sounds like my brother.

How cute? Having trouble coming up with a story. My daughter Becky who is developmentally delayed came home from school followed by a phone call to mom. Becky had announced she was having an affair. Becky loved watching Genera lHospital. Still follows it twenty years later at 34.

That's hilarious! When my youngest was about 5 we were in the truck driving and he made the connection about red and green lights on the road meaning "stop" and "go". So, I asked him if he knew what the yellow light meant. He said "go faster".

When my nephew was little his doctor decided he needed surgery to remove his tonsils and adenoids. After meeting with the surgeon prior to the surgery, he spent the ride home in silence. When his mom asked him what was wrong, he started crying and said he didn't want to have surgery. His mom explained it was only his tonsils and he'd be good as new in just a few days. He replied, "No mom, the are taking my adenoids. What if they take my penis too??" Uhhh, those are your testicles, not your adenoids kid. Lol

In Spain me as an adult visiting my daughters military base school I remember a 1st grader coming out of the bathroom and saying to my wife and I while pointing to another boy "He said the F word He said Fuck Fuck FFFuck". With a mimic of the way a teacher may emphasis a pronunciation.

There was a time with my son that he was one of those "I got to finish the math test faster than anybody else." And usually he did and later the teacher had to sit with him to explain the teacher what were those symbols he put instead of numbers... to write them faster he didn't finished them so a nr 4 may look like a cross, a 6 a half parenthesis. etc. Of course now he is a network engineer.
