WHERE DO BABIES COME FROM? Have you faced this dreaded question yet? What would you say or what did you say if you were ever asked?

Question

CONVERSATION IN THE CAR CONTINUED...
My son then gave me another shocker when he asked me where do babies come from? 😳 (Can I just say the stork please?).

(Nah not a good idea lol)
Desperately clinging to vague (and my sanity) I say "Well thats a decision that moms and dads make together. When they have finished school, have a steady job, a good place to live, love each others deeply and then they may decide they want a baby. Babys need a lady and a guy to be made"...
(Silence from him and Im holding my breath) He says"oh ok" 🤷

Then "Mami?"
"YES?" 😬😳😵‍💫😩
"Can we go to McDonald's and buy a happy meal for me and sister?"

"ABSOLUTELY LITTLE MONKEY AND HOW ABOUT ICECREAM TOO?"
"YES! You're the best. I love you Mami"
I laugh relieved and happy to know my son is still quite innocent 😇 PLUS I'm greatful to the end of these questions! And I say "LITTLE MAN TE AMO TAMBIÉN!" (I love you too in Spanish)

I've dealt with it as an educator. I answered that they should ask their parents. I answered this way because it was my school's policy, to say nothing of the legal ramifications. If it were up to me, I would answer with complete honesty as far as the child wanted to know. However, my hands are tied and I cannot.

I had a variant of this question asked of me by my niece. I doubt it was a coincidence that it occurred while we explored a tide pool. She asked where did the *first * person come from. I took the opportunity to explain macro biological evolution to her. I took it slow and was patient. I even found examples on the spot, showing her an urchin shell and comparing it to a starfish, demonstrating comparative anatomy between two different but somewhat related species. She understood it for the most part, but remained puzzled. She sat in my lap, my arms around her at sunset, and asked, "But where did the *first* living thing come from?"

"Scientists are not quite sure. There's some ideas you'll learn about when you are older, but we're not quite sure. "

She paused, then after some thought very earnestly replied, "[Uncle Bluemax], I think God did it."

"Maybe you're right. Maybe you'll help find the answer."

Last Christmas, my niece told me she very much remembers that conversation. I'll never forget it.

Whenever a child asks a question, the best thing to do is answer honestly, using words that they can understand. When they ask "Where do babies come from" you simply say, "Babies grow inside their mother's belly." Be sure not to use stomach or the child may think the mother eats the baby.

🤦‍♀️ People need to stop demonizing basic science. There is absolutely nothing wrong with telling your children the TRUTH about where babies come from... here's a story I remember:
A woman had always told her daughter that her "private parts" was her "cookie" or her "tutu" (trying to name it anything other than what it was 🙄) well her grandfather was molesting her and she tried to tell her mom which translated to "grandpa keeps messing with my cookie". I guess the mother was either dumb or thought she meant her grandpa was eating her ACTUAL cookies so she had no clue until months into the abuse. Moral of the story? Had the mom not bullshitted her kid with dumb nicknames and fantastical stories, the kid would have been able to say "grandpas messing with my vagina" and the issue could've been solved right away.
That's immediately what I thought of when I read your post.

My kids learned this while I was pregnant. It was often discussed and we just told them the truth. That dad gives mom the baby seeds with his penis and then I grow the baby and pop it out of my vagina. The popping out of the vagina was talked about way to much since they were both interested in seeing the birth of the baby😆

When my cousins asked me where babies come from I told them very simply…

“When the mommy, and the daddy Love each other very very much they choose to make a wish, and if they wish with all there might eventually that wish becomes a seed that they plan which in turn, and in time eventually became you”.

They tell their kids that now in days when they ask.

As far as "where do babies come from" check with your local library they have books made for young kids so they can take in the reality of how babies are made without too much detail, who knows they may even have a video you can borrow.
