I don't want to put my willy in that secret hole

Angus, 5: Babies come from the mummy and daddy. Inside the mummy's tummy, they go zoom - the two things. Whoever wins the race goes wuvavoovavoov, mixed up with the egg and then out pops the baby. Which one won the race? Did I win the race? Do they have eyes? I won't have any children. I don't want to put my willy in that secret hole.

Jessica age 6 - she knows to much!
That Jessica is a bit of a know it all
Agreed
me too
Like Whowhere, I'm impressed that each had some reference to "love" or "Mum and Dad"
I read a (short, made for kids) book about it when I was 5.
Who says the contraception we have isnt adequate? What isnt adequate is people's understanding and responsibility towards actually using it.
I think by that age kids should have a basic knowledge of how baby's are made, and the emphasis that 'mummy and daddy are in love and are married' is important.
But i think more intimate details can be saved for a later stage such as 'the sperm and egg meet'... what ever happened to childhood innocence?
The marriage part isn't important. That could turn sour and lead to the idea that marriage is for families, man and woman only rather than love.
I don't know how I knew. I didn't get told. I think I got a book when I was older. I dunno, 11? The book + TV + friends.
