One of my wifes friends came over the other day for dinner;
Daughter (she’s 6) “where’s your husband”
Friend “I’m not married”
Daughter “do you have a boyfriend”
Friend “no”
Daughter “are you a lesbian?”
Friend “no”
No idea where she got that from.
About 10 o’clock and the little ‘un comes downstairs;
Her “what are you watching”
Me “Grown up telly, go to bed”
Her “can I watch it”
Me “No, go to bed”
Her “why?”
Me “it has grown up words, now go to bed”
Her “does it have the f-word in it dad?”
Me “yes, go to bed now”
Her “do you know the f-word dad?”
Me “yes, go to bed now”
Her “it’s f^&* isn’t it”
Me “get up those stairs now young lady”
It’s become apparent that there are some negatives to sending her to school on a bus containing kids up to the age of 18 and no adults!
Slightly more twee;
“Daddy, brains are like mummies aren’t they”
“why do you think that”
“they tell you things that you need to know and they keep you safe even if you don’t know it”
