Ah!!.. the whole thing is weird. Girl parts aren't weird. I'm not looking forward to the man part discovery!!!!Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15611462778806889465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942282.post-71685704502037247742008-05-27T10:04:00.000-05:002008-05-27T10:04:00.000-05:00It's nice to hear from Scott B. and hear a man/Dad...It's nice to hear from Scott B. and hear a man/Dad's perspective on the subject!Superchikkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11677663681761490238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12942282.post-60539190082308346202008-05-26T20:22:00.000-05:002008-05-26T20:22:00.000-05:00I normally don't respond to these but felt this on...I normally don't respond to these but felt this one I had personal experience in. <BR/><BR/>I read the "Bringing up boys" book (part of it) and it does talk about the testosterone altering the neural pathways. Very interesting as it does also explain why boys do things girls will never consider. <BR/><BR/> As for the finding themselves, I am not sure but there does become an “awareness” and is normally followed by 6 million questions about location of these parts, who has and does not have what (especially when the family is getting ready in the morning). Our daughter has also become “aware” and that has sparked a lot of additional questions that for some reason as the man of the house I develop a complete loss of words which ends up with me redirecting them to some toy or the always faithful answer, “Go ask your Mother”. [I picked that one up years ago and it has saved by bacon on numerous occasions.]<BR/><BR/> From there it only gets worse.<BR/>1.) Artwork now becomes anatomically correct (in a Van-Gough sort of way) <BR/>2.) You begin to worry about discussions at church and school<BR/>3.) They begin to refer to the body parts by name and in really loud voices only when other people are around. One morning we were walking into church (just started visiting) down the preschool hall, our son was pulling at himself, I (being the supportive dad) asked what was wrong. He responded (in a volume slightly lower than a full out yell) that his (insert male anatomy name here) hurt. <BR/><BR/>YOU WON’T GET THIS KIND OF TRUTH FROM ANY TYPE OF BOOK!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
