How My 7-Year-Old Learned About Pre-Marital Sex from John McCain

Ok, yes, you can credit or fault me as a mother for allowing my 7- year-old to suffer under the blissful ignorance of believing that one needs to be married before one gets pregnant. Or you can credit or fault me for answering my child's matter-of-fact questions about how babies are made even though he is only 7. But all credit and fault goes to John McCain and Sarah Palin for exposing all children who have a TV to the news that Palin's unmarried teenage daughter is indeed 5 months pregnant.

Seeing this "Breaking News" on TV when trying to catch news of Gustav and the Republican Convention, my son immediately asks me "But how can she be pregnant if she isn't married?" and "Does a girl get pregnant every time she has sex with a boy?" Thus ensues the revelation that sex is possible before marriage, and how condoms and birth control pills can prevent pregnancy and HIV. I wholly believe in educating my child about contraception. But given that he is indeed 7, I could easily have waited another year or two for him to be older for that particular conversation. I sorta liked the sweet illusion of the "sex is for grown-ups in committed relationships" thing ... don't most parents of elementary-age children?

oh wait, Bristol Palin is the first unmarried pregnant female that has ever come along in the past seven years. and isnt the OP the one who has a son in prison?

Of course the Yugo-idolatrizing Joanne98 primitive is serious.

Of course Bristol Palin is the first unmarried pregnant female in all of human history.

Of course the Joanne98 primitive is the one with a son in prison; after serving his time down there in Texas, he was transferred to serve his time over there in Tennessee.

yes, her son was a guest at the State Hotel. Funny, we haven't heard anything about him since his supposed release.

And they say conservatives don't want to talk about sex with their kids???

"Does a girl get pregnant every time she has sex with a boy?"

Give us a freakin break...you claim a 7 year old boy innocently asked a question like that?

Effing liar.

I wonder how Jo explained Jamie Spears?

Joanne98 is the looniest of the loons.

I would have thought her 7 year old son would have learned about pre/non-marital sex when he asked, "Mommy, why don't I have a Daddy?"

She is a DUmmie after all.

[miskie]

The only reason this is an issue at all is the DUmmies and the media made it one -- or did you libtards already forget about so-called 'babygate'

Maybe Hillary's husband's girlfriend can teach her about facials.

Seriously, they never went that far, it got on her dress.

Well, just think of it as returning the favor since Clinton taught my sons about sex too. Granted, he WAS married (which means, I guess, you don't care WHO they do it with as long as one of the involved party is married) and that makes it okay. However, I would like to say it would've been easier to explain why that girl is pregnant than, "Guess what Taylor said he did with a cigar?"

I'm shocked that the loon didn't try and teach her kid about sex at the age of 3.

Sounds to me as though Joanne98 has had her butt probed by aliens one too many times.

"When boys have sex with boys, like my brother does in prison, do they have babies, too?"

Fixt!  H5 in addition--it's a good thing I swallowed the coffee I had in my mouth!

This fell flat. A sub-zero Bouncy. Not even worth a rating.

I sorta liked the sweet illusion of the "sex is for grown-ups in committed relationships" thing ...

And since when do DUmmies believe that?

Since it benefits their agenda.

Uhhh the question was probably more;

Mommy, why does my friend Bobby down the street have 2 daddies?

That question would have been perfectly acceptable.

i was talking to the older daughter about this post earlier and she said to me, "do you remember how mortified we all were having to discuss oral sex in junior? we giggled about it but we didnt really know what it was... until Clinton"


just one more example of how history didnt start until GW was in the White House.
