Never did understand the people who have their 6 year olds wearing makeup and slut wear and pushing them away from toys at that age. Then they wonder why their 13 isn't a virgin! Hello!!! What is the big rush??

I still remember being mortified in the aisle of the drugstore, though, every time I'd be choosing 'feminine protection' products. Crazy.<br /><br />I was always very open with my kids, too, and we talked about everything a little at a time, so there was never one 'big talk.' My mother-in-law, who found that stuff just too mortifying to speak of, didn't like that I taught our kids the correct words for their body parts, even when they were very little. So silly.<br /><br />I agree about keeping them kids for as long as possible. Childhood is short enough without giving any of it up voluntarily!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-64631369022920441832011-12-07T11:00:10.882-05:002011-12-07T11:00:10.882-05:00Jo, what would life be without our beliefs?

I am so pleased you enjoyed it. I am just counting my blessings that my little girl is still interested in toys this Christmas!! I want both of my kids to stay kids as long as possible!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564863484894692249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-24699768221603121072011-12-06T14:26:16.571-05:002011-12-06T14:26:16.571-05:00This is wonderful.

Your decision to educate your own kids is a really good one. In this world, not knowing can be brutal for a child. <br />Gotta say though, at Christmas, I am a little naive. I still believe people are good and that the little bit of help that I can give makes a difference and I refuse to give that up! :)Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285427147723972295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5303475796807404950.post-28504245856946271862011-12-06T14:09:29.715-05:002011-12-06T14:09:29.715-05:00Innocence is a tricky thing--we lose it sometimes ...Innocence is a tricky thing--we lose it sometimes far to quickly--and for others--it is a brutal awakening when they do lose it. I just pray that my kids want to be kids for a while longer. My hope every day!<br /><br />A very realistic interpretation of how it was back in the day!!<br /><br />Cheers, JennJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559573562599754752noreply@blogger.com
