Today, the topic of sexual education and THE TALK came up during lunch. You know, the Birds and the Bees Talk that you have with your father. I explained to them my father gave my brother and I 'The Talk' 3 times. Before the first time he had The Talk with us, we had already done our own research and finished sex ed at school. So, the third time he had The Talk with us my brother and I started laughing and shaking our heads hysterically.
'Dad, we've had this talk twice before!!!'
'We have?' he said legitimately shocked.
'Yes!' And we got up and walked away.
My co-teacher defended him. 'He is just being a good father. He is worried about you.'
'I agree. He should be. My sister had a child at 16.'
'OH, THAT'S TOO LATE!' exclaimed Miss Yoo vigorously. 'They should've had it earlier.'
'WHAT?!' I bit my lip so hard out of shock that I drew blood. And my other co-teacher K is staring at her in disbelief.
'Ms. Yoo, she had a child at 16!!!!' I restate while looking at my bloody lip.
'Oh, I thought we were still talking about THE TALK.' She replies abashed.
And, yesterday, they asked what a booty call was out of the blue. .... Mom don't ask.
Notes:
It's all downhill from here!!!! WING'S NIGHT TONIGHT! TOMORROW I AM DECKING MYSELF OUT IN GREEN FOR ST PADDY'S DAY!! AND THURSDAY IS GOING TO BE A BREEEEEEEEEZZZZZZE!!!
P.S. Here is a great photo for this time of year. And it reminds me of Korean kids: all study and no play. Better get a ladder and a saw, kid.
Maybe now isn't the best time for THE TALK.
