cherries?

finally, claire had her p5 science lesson on 'reproduction of animals'.

it was talk about sperms, eggs, testes, penis, ovary....

she came back home ystday telling me that the boys were so attentive esp Q, who's notorious for visting the porn website. even the teacher knew about it and had called him up for counselling (with parental knwledge and consent!)

the boys were sniggering away, according to her.

in the night, we were eating cherries. suddenly, she asked,"mommy, what's so bad about cherries?"

"it's just a fruit!" i pretended to be in ignorance.

"but the boys in my class talked about cherries and eek eek all the times! they even used the term 'u r cherry-less!' " she responded.

"look at daddy. he has his raisins too what!" i digressed a little.

boys are really mischievous and curious lots of 'animals' (i didn't say 'beasts' here), esp at this age. their conversation, sneering and behaviours sure puzzle the girls in the class.

soon, we were off the topic when claire suddenly told me about jacky's bdae last week, of the fruity song that they sang as penalty.

it was 'water melon, cherry, banana..' aye, she sure was disturbed by all these terminologies. well, jacky's birthday was targeted at invitees from 11 to 20-something, so it's a more matured theme.

i guess it was for the fun. great that claire is still checking out things with me, so i'm sure she will not be misled and confused at this age, haha.

that's the fun part of parenting. can white and red imagine how trisha and nini would start broaching on this subject with you mommies?

  2. I can't imagine when I have to go through this phase. I remembered Joy looking up at internet over male organ because she didn't know how it look like.
