"Mommy, why your nenen is big??"

*Doink* I almost fainted my son asked me this last week. It has been sooooooo long time already since i was last asked about human (boy / girl) anatomy, and of a sudden, son bombarded me with his bonus question again. He understand the difference between boy and girl already, but now he is curious with the difference between adult and small kids especially in girl. So here was our conversation last week :

Son : Mommy..why your *pointing at my boobs* is big??? Why Inesha one no big???

Mommy : Erkkkkkkkkk!!!!! (hubby was next to me when son asked me the bonus question) Why not asked daddy about that.

Son : Daddy, why mommy's *pointing at my boobs again* is big-big????

Daddy : Ya lah!! It's like that..mommy is adult. That's why..(So much for an answer)

Son : But why Inesha's one don't have???

Mommy : *Laughing half dead* She is still a small girl. That's why..

Son : *Lifted up my daughter's shirt* See!!! Don't have one..

Mommy : Ya!! Ya!! Mommy know that..

Son : Next time Inesha big-big also will have big-big *pointing at my boobs again*????

Mommy : Yes!! *red faced*

Seriously!! Why I'm the one who always have to answer this kind of question from son!!!????? Hahahaha!! I know i'm isaac's mommy, but i was embarrased when he keep pointing at my *toot* that day. Very silly, right???? I cannot imagine what questions he will ask next time when he figure out another difference in between female adult and girl. Sei lorrrr...

The Killer Question

This is what happen to me on one fine Sunday morning while bathing son. Isaac who is known for his curiosity did it again. For quite a long time already, he didn't asked me about his private part, but out of nothing i was asked the toughest question by son again :

Me : *Soaping son*

Son : MOMMY!!!!! What is this?????

Me : *GRASP* Emmmmm...it's called testicle.

Son : Why i have a testicle???

Me : All boys and men have testicles...it's like that..

Son : What the testicle for???

Me : *Blank!! Cannot think any answer*

Son : Why must i have testicle?? Can i just cut it?? I only use 'bebird' to pee, so no need this lah.

Me : Cannot!! Isaac must have one..

Son : *Soaping himself* MOMMY!!!! Why if i touch testicle, its like 'biji durian'????

Me : *WAKAKAKAKA!!!! ketawa setengah mati* Whaaaaat make you think it's a durian seed??

Son : Ya lah!! It's like a durian..

Me : The shape is always like that..

Son : Mommy, i don't want to have a 'biji durian'..can cut or not??

me : cannot!!!

Son : WHY??????

and that last 'WHY' left me in a lurch trying to figure out what answer to give son that time. I still haven't answer son until now coz' i cannot think any suitable answer. So pleaseeeee!!!!!! Anybody who can think a logical asnwer for my son, Isaac???? I seriously cannot think any decent answer for him lah!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!

**tomorrow is monday!!! Arggghhhh...bencinya~~~

Sex Education : Double headache.

Just when I thought I'm done with son questioning me about his private part and thing that pricked his curiousity, Daughter started to do the same too...Aihhhhh!!!! Now I have to start all over again the teaching process which this time it's the opposite on what I taught son before. Like opposite way of the whole process lah! Instead of going to the left side, now I have to to the right side. Hehee Anyway, you must be wondering what daughter has done right? How can 18 1/2 old months baby had anything to do with sex?? Ayah!! Not that kind of sex lah..

Last night, I was cleaning daughter 'poo-poo' when she ask me thing.

Daughter : Mommy, keen cicah bebed? (Mommy Clean inesha 'bird-bird'?)

Mommy : *doink* emmmmm..No! Inesha is a girl..no bird-bird.

Daughter : mommy, keen la (oh yeah! she has 'lah' in everything)

Mommy : *Smiling* No...inesha is a girl..so no 'bird-bird', only boy has it..

Daughter : *mumbling herself*

So there, another episode of sex confusion. My daughter still has no idea boy and girl is different. I think she thought both the same. I'm in the teaching process now, but it's kinda tough because my son influence everything in my daughter doing. From the way she talk, sing, scream, eat, sleep..everything! And it was him who teach daughter about 'bebed'! Daughter must have thought she and kor-kor are the same. Sometimes pening you know dealing with this complicated matter! Just imagine, if you have 5 kids, you will to go through this phase 5 times...5 times???? Haha!! 1/2 of your life will be about teaching your kids about sex..

Back to daughter, I probably should have to wait a little longer to do the explaination. I don't think it's the right moment yet. She is only 18 months old oh..! Of course I will keep telling her she is a girl and 'korkor' is a boy, with a hope, she will understand it in the future..hehe!

But if you think teaching a small toddler about gender differences is difficult, I found it more difficult to toilet train Inesha. Did I mention she wants to 'shi-shi' (pee) standing? Yeps! She want to 'shi-shi' like her brother! No matter how much coaxing to tell her to sit at her potty, she will cry and tell she wants to stand. Aiyooo...another solution to find. Now my shoulder need to carry double weight already..

Oh..before I forgot, Son asked again about the 'susu' thing last night. Same question as in my previous post. He was doing his homework when he suddenly bolted and asked me "Mommy, Why girl have susu? Isaac also have??" See, he won't be satisfied with the simple answer, its for girl and only girl has it. I guess I will need to dry up my brain to figure out the answers for both son and daughter.

Well, any help or advice from the parents who have gone through the curiousity phase will be much appreciated..hehe I know I'm going to need lots of help to deal with my kids curiosity..If you have the tips... PLEASEEEEEEEEE!! Share with me....

Sex Education. The easy method of teaching

I'm back!!! Hehe In a better mood of course. Though I don't really like Monday, at least I'm feeling much better than last Saturday. I really wanna thank you (Lab Papa, Chegu carol, Poppet, Nick Phillip, Nyumix, kobie, niniejane, wel, andrik, oiga) for the sweet message cheering me up. Appreciate it very much. By the way, somebody has spammed my blog..!!! Well, It is spamming in a good way lah. Hehe Thanx to Papajoneh for the load of comments..I was smiling like idiot when I saw my inbox full with Papajoneh name..

When I read my Lazy Mode post, I'm laughing myself seeing how 'ngox' I was that day. I guess I was very tired and that's why I sound 'ngox' too. I had a sleepless night that day, my daughter wasn't sleeping really well. She kept waking me up asking me to hug her and scratch her itchy leg. I only managed to sleep around 4.30am, so you can imagine my crankiness last saturday. Thank God, my son is getting better now, but daughter not getting any better. She is soooooooooo clingy she wanted me to carry her around all the time. *sigh* If ringan nevermind lah, more than 10kg how to carry??

Anyway, I was in dilemma yesterday, so another opinion needed here. My son (4 years old) never failed to put me in the most awkward position as a mother and as an adult. The dilemma started this way..

My helper was about to bathe my daughter when son asked the most killer question (SPM question is much...much easier to answer than this).

Son : MOMMY!!!! What do you call this (Point to daughter's nip*le)

Mommy : Erk!! Emm..the one is called nip*le..

Son : No lah! The one is called susu..

Mommy : Yes..but it also call nip*le.

Son : Inesha also have one..Isaac also have one..

Mommy : Yes..(Hoping he won't ask any further question)

Son : So Inesha also have milk?

Mommy : No lah! Inesha and Isaac have no milk..the one is for the 'Mommy' only..

Son : Isaac 'susu' will get big like a girl or not?

Mommy : *BANGGED MY HEAD AGAINST THE WALL* Erkk..no lah..Isaac is boy lah..

Son : Girl only will have big 'susu'???

Mommy : Ok!! Ok!!! Time to 'mandi'..next time ask daddy about that..

Son : But...

Mommy : Go...go..mandi now!!

The truth is, I don't know what to tell him. He always asked me question beyond my capability to answer him. If you still remember one of my earliest post about son asking why Boy has 'bird-bird' and girl doesn't, I'm thinking the recent conversation we had was sooooooo much difficult than the 'bird-bird' question. Son sometimes put me in a really difficult position that he makes me guilty for not answering his question, but also make me 'blank' on what answer I should give him.

There was one time, I brought my son to watch daddy playing badminton when he saw our company QS lighting up his ciggarette. Being an outspoken kid he is, he asked my collegue in the most bossy tone.

Son : Uiiii!! Uncle, why you smoke one??

QS : I'm adult already mah.

Son : Cannot, you will damaged your lungs (I almost fainted when son told our QS that). Smoking is very bad.

QS : (Red Faced and angry tone) I haven't light up yet mah!

Son : Smoking will burn your lung, you know..(Me straight away dragged him away from the angry QS).

Haha!! I know what my son told the QS was sooooooooo true. But, I can see my collegue was already angry that time. Do you think big grown man like him like to be told about his bad smoking habit by a 4 years old boy? So, I dragged my son out as I don't want my son to be lashed out by the QS because he won't understand it. I cannot tell him what he did was wrong, because he didn't say anything wrong at all.

You probably will tell me to explain things to my son in a simple and undestandable way, but if you ever meet my son, you will know it won't be easy. My son is the type who will ask question from A-Z, 1-10, and if he is not satisfied with the answer, he will haunt you down for the answer. Example : How come baby can be in mommy's tummy? Where is the baby from?? Headache kan..? He will still ask the baby's question occasionally whenever his mood strikes him.

In the end, I should probably read more book to get ready being asked by son again, but do you think I will be able to answer every question he has in his mind?? *sigh* yeah..I don't think so too..So how lah???
