Little Miss (8) announced after tea that she wants to get pregnant as a child. Daddy explained that she couldn't, and even if she could, the baby would be put into care and the daddy would be put in prison because you weren't allowed to have one as a child. This leads her to her asking how do you have a baby. Quick as a flash, Little Master (9) announces, "You have lots of sex!" So shutting down that avenue before he can fill in any further gaps, he proceeds to dispense advice on the life steps she needs to take before she should think about having a child . . . get a job . . . buy a house . . . etc. Little Mister counters with the fact she already has a house. When she is put right as to whose house it is and that she would need her own, she is aghast. Suddenly, being grown up doesn't sound quite as appealing as she was hoping it would be.
