Zack is 3-1/3 years old. This summer he mastered potty training, and in the process has become very aware of the differences between boys & girls anatomy. Here's the transcript of a conversation between Zack & I in the grocery store today:
Zack: He's a boy [pointing to an older gentleman]. He has a penis.
Mommy [speaking softly]: You're right Zack, but we don't talk about that in the store.
Zack [in a louder voice]: I'm a boy. I have a ...
Mommy [in a firm voice]: Zack, STOP ...
Zack [quite loudly]: PENIS!!
Mommy continues trying to silence Zack.
Zack starts a little song: "I have a penis [Smiling face]. Girls don't have a penis [sad face]." (Repeat about 10-15 times.)
I couldn't even try to silence him -- I was laughing too hard! Another mom chuckled and smiled a "I've been there" smile at me. Guess it's something all moms go through!
