Well, Melissa, when a man and a woman...j/k! LOL.
Okay no joke... I'm going to tell you what my parents told me when I was little. It made perfect sense at the time and I could not figure out why my older cousins kept asking me to explain it and then giggling!
"When a man and a woman are in love and are married to each other, they pray to God for a baby. Then when a woman eats something with seeds like an orange or a watermelon, God turns the seed into a baby!"
lies... all lies.... :)
True life: When I was REALLY little, I thought babies came from kissing, (being too young to know the difference between sexual kissing and family kisses) so I used to check the toilet for babies.
@corgi- LOL that is so funny! My best friends parents told her that her mom swallowed a pumpkin seed!
Lol @ corgitales and kjpugs! I came from a family that told it like it was. Not sure if that was helpful or scary as crap. Probably the latter now that I think about it. You know what else helped explained it? I was like 10 when I saw my Mother give birth to my little brother. The PERFECT birth control. Omg, it was so traumatizing.
LOL @ pugs, corgi, and jennifer! Checking the toilet for babies after family gatherings, heehee!
Bwah ha ha ha! I ASKED my parents where they came from. More specifically, my mom, in the car while it was raining, on the way to my grandparents. I heard something at a slumber party that didn't QUITE make sense.
heh, I watched a cartoon video when I was in 3rd grade at a friend's slumber party and that's how I learned. I'm not sure what I believed before that. All I know is I was laughing soooooo much at the begning because naked cartoon boy babies were crawling around and they had little penises (they were shaped like a U lol). To an 8 year old, that's seriously funny stuff lol One of my friends had to cover my mouth because I was laughing so much and she didn't want me to wake my friend's mom. Thought I was gonna pee my pants, seriously.
LOL our little (3 year old) God-daughter just asked her dad where babies came from a few weeks ago.
I’m not sure exactly what he said to her, but what she heard (and now tells everyone, including perfect strangers!!!) is that the woman eats a baby whole, that’s how the baby gets inside, then when it is ready, it just comes out. hahaha!!
I grew up on a farm. Needless to say, my innocent eyes saw lots of things they shouldn't have. My parents had to tell me the truth...I thought the pigs were hurting each other.
This thread is cracking me up! Everyone's childhood beliefs are hysterical!!
I NEVER ever had this talk with my parents. We had sex ed in the 6th grade (I went to public school) and I learned everything there!
"Well. I think a stork, he, um, he drops it down and then--and then a hole goes in your body, and there's blood everywhere coming out of your head, and then you push your belly button, and then your butt falls off, and then you hold your butt, and you have to dig, and you find the little baby!"
lol @ layla, that's what the little girl from "Knocked Up" says, right?
Love the knocked up reference! Those girls were amazing lol. Apparently Judd Apatow didn't give them lines to remember, he just let them go off on little rants!
I don't know where babies come from, but when its my time- I'm hoping the stork just drops the baby off. Ahh birth freaks me out! I cry when I break a nail.
Hehe, apparently when I was a kid I told my little sister that people were born with a baby inside them already - so when the person who was born grew up then the baby started growing inside them. She totally believed it until she started having sex ed in 5th grade! (You know, the basic where babies come from sex ed). She only told me this the other day, I had totally forgotten all about it!
@RB - seriously? That's hilarious! That means that little girl ad-libbed "Guess what I did yesterday? I googled murder." Lmao!
@Layla: That's true! That line is actually where it all started... and then when this info came out they blocked everything on the computer but she still keep googling garbage so she lost all her computer rights. Both those girls are Leslie Mann & Judd Apatows kids so they naturally have a funny streak in them :)
This is where they come from! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyhKyGDPAMo
You have to watch Pixar's short film "Partly Cloudy," it's too cute!
haha! no wonder that kid had such a squirelly face when she said she googled murder - that kid has a mischevious glint in her eye and i like it!
My parents told me a bunch of garbage about "planting a seed" so I took it literally and thought that during the wedding, a man put a seed in the woman's belly button and then she was pregnant. I had a pretty vivid imagination, though ;)
I was told the truth at a very young age and then my mom let me be in the delivery room for my brother's birth when I was 10. I thought it was so neat! I got to be in the OR when my stepmom had my youngest sister by c-section, however I was 17 then. I'm just waiting on one of my many little siblings to ask where babies come from. They have told me recently to hurry up and get married so I can have babies for them to play with.
I saw this on the right-hand side of the blog ... and seriously thought it was a joke from one of those fake accounts! You are too funny!
@Dancy - Ha ha! Sad but true on more than one occasion!
I don't remember where I first learned but it was probably from my mom. She was pretty straightforward with me from the start.
I lvoe those girls in Knocked Up! They are so, so cute.
When my mom was pregnant with my brothers, I was old enough to know how the baby got in there...but I also thought that in order for the baby to grow, the father had to keep "fertilizing" it. I thought the more sex they had, the faster the baby would grow! If only that were true...
Damn y'all beat me to the Knocked Up reference. Boo. I love those girls.
LOL @ tequila, too.
I have to say @Corgi's parents had a pretty good lie!! LOL I was wondering what I would tell my children when they asked that question, I may just have to take that :)
My dad actually NEVER had the talk with me. I don't even remember where I learned!!! I think I eventually just got it somehow. Don't know how, where, or when. But it came to me!
