I remember DS in the back seat of the car asking 'Mommy, what is sexual assault?' at age ???8???10?
Me: (gulp)Well, do you know what sexual means?
Him: yup
Me: Do you know what assault means?
Him: (Look of comprehension on his face) OHHHHHHHHH!
Me: ((shrugs)) It's rare.
I have no idea what he actually comprehended, I was just happy to have the conversation over. Yup - DH got a 'conversation' from me about how important it was to keep the news and radio OFF.
Newspapers have crime reports. Should they be kept out of reach of children?
