I guess I'm kind of following that example with my kids just because it STILL feels weird to call a part a part. We actually started calling my son's penis just that, but he started calling it his "wee wee," so we're sticking with that. Others - butt is a "booty", boobs are "nursing thingies" (my son's invention), and a fart is just "passing gas" or a "poot." We use the real terms for these various body parts enough that he knows the real name (except for breasts), but it's just much more comfortable to use the fun names!cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07821039766205415909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14940117.post-33419111945812691162007-04-03T08:11:00.000-04:002007-04-03T08:11:00.000-04:00We try to use the clinical terms as much as possib...We try to use the clinical terms as much as possible. Although I admit that I sometimes call the genitals "bird" because that's what my parents called them when I was growing up.<BR/><BR/>One thing that really bothers me is when people use the term vagina to refer to the female genitals. The vagina is the internal part that isn't visible. The vulva is the part that you see on the outside. I don't know why that bugs me but it does. LOL<BR/><BR/>Now if I could just get my 2 year old to stop violently yanking on his penis. Anyone got any suggestions on that? When he was in the tub the other night I told him that touching his penis was something he should only do in private. So he hid behind the shower curtain and continued.Dealing with ithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07433858365009439542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14940117.post-73955377103748174072007-04-02T18:53:00.000-04:002007-04-02T18:53:00.000-04:00we use the general term privates because we are ra...we use the general term privates because we are raising an exhibitionist and we need to remind her what parts are private (ie: just for her, not for the world to see). She's familiar with all the anatomical names but doesn't really use them. She's all about boobs lately- when she'll get them, will they look like mine, etc.<BR/>As for functions, it's pee, poop, and farts. And oooh boy- she loves the farts.Challenge 20/20 teamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01828028554265021913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14940117.post-82892609995516210562007-04-02T16:25:00.000-04:002007-04-02T16:25:00.000-04:00"bus"?
