awkward

When broaching one particular awkward subject with children, there are two trains of thought:

1. Sit down with them and have a frank if not uncomfortable discussion, or...

2. Do what my parents did and avoid the subject at all cost, letting them pick up all the shocking details off the so called "streets", or by watching nature documentaries and allowing the child to come to the realization on their own, that the world is not some "magical" place and in fact mom and dad have been "doing it" all along,

So, I really believe option #2. Let them figure out that mom and dad have been the ones puting out the Easter candy every year and the Easter Bunny isn't real.

Oh yeah... for where do babies come from... just leave the parental filter off the computer and go to Florida for the weekend. HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!
