o.O my child.

Comes out of his bedroom pantless after getting his clean undies and pajamas in hand. "Mom, what are these hard things"? I'm all what hard things? <changing LO's diaper> these things.. Pinching his ball sack. I tell him, "those are called your testicles. They are a part of your penis. . He goes, "Well, they hurt really much when I pinch them. So that means they are kind of like eggs, right? They feel like eggs."
Oh my gosh. Do you use proper names with your kids? Should I have said, they are testicles inside his scrotum? And is the teste actually apart of his penis? How did you teach your boy about their parts? And what age? My son is 5 and I want to stay in the age appropriate, honesty category.

I'm bad. I just them that's their balls.

LOL, and that they're part of your privates, and your penis.

I used to tell them they had pee pees instead of penises and girls had a crotch.

But my daughter is determined she has a pee pee too, so now everyone has one.

Tonight must be the night for stripping. My daughter stripped to "pick at her toes" tonight.

My sons call them their "balls and wiener", curtesy of their daddy lol

Testicles, penis, ect. and they are part of their sexual organs not so much part of their penis though lol.

So the penis is the shaft, right? And they are the same thing?

So what should I say the testicle is? Maybe tell him the testicles are inside the scrotum which is attached to his penis? I don't really want to open a discussion on sexual organs, as in- him asking what sexual is. Because then he will ask and ask and ask until I tell him. And I'm not ready to have that conversation yet.

i think you answered just fine.. we tell conan (3 yrs) not to play with his penis all the time.. and when he notices his testes ill just tell him they are his testicles and part of him being a boy.. idk if ill say part of the penis or sexual organ or what but just part of being a boy.
