My sister-in-law, Jackie, had "the talk" with my nephew, Mike (age 9), a week ago. Mike wanted to know what sex is. The following dialogue ensued:
M: Mom, what is sex?
J: (uh-oh)Sigh, it's when the married couple(!!!!!!) shares their private parts with each other. The man inserts his penis into the woman's vagina.
M: That wouldn't be hard. Your vagina must be big since I came through it as a baby.
J: (let this torture end)The vagina changes sizes.
M: So, you and Dad had sex twice, right. Once for me and once for Ryan.
J: Weeeeeelllllll, (should I lie and say yes, we had sex only twice and shook hands afterwards to seal the deal???) no we have sex more than that.
M: Why do you have sex if you're not making a baby?
J: (maybe just one little lie!!!) It's fun and it feels good.
M: Okay. Pause. What's for breakfast?
J: (I need an advil or 4.)

This is delightful! I love the approach-the whole truth-even when it requires lots of advil after.
