DS2 is 7 and they must have been talking about the Beehive (Parliament) and the politicians in class. And ad for Greenpeace came on about the current Government needing to reduce the amount of dairy farms to reduce cow poo polluting our streams and rivers - or something to that effect I can't really recall. Anyhow, all you hear from DS2 during the ad is 'The National party suck. Vote them out'. Say what?!?! In all reality, they have screwed over the country and he has got a point.
DS2 again. He must have been 5. But we'd taken his cat Gizmo (profile picture) to the vet to have him fixed. I told my son when he got home that he needed to be careful of Gizmo because he'd had a 'de-knackering' and was sore and unsteady of his feet. I figured he didn't need to know the exact words given his age. When he asked me what that meant I thought I better tell him and told him the vet took off his testicles so he couldn't make any baby Gizmos. He left it at that satisfied with my answer. God know what he was doing a couple of weeks later but Gizmo was back to his usual dopey self and DS2 was back to sitting on his head. He must have had a look under his tail and proudly said 'Mummy Gizmo's tentacles have grown back! He can make babies again!' I lost the mouthful of coffee I'd just taken.
