Irulan, your story reminds of the time a close friend took her 3 or 4 year old daughter to their rental house to collect the rent from the renter. Her daughter (a friend of my older son), looked at the guy and said to her mom, "Does he have a penis?" To which my friend replied, "I don't think he has any peanuts. We can eat some later."

Also it's not very common in our country to see women wearing hijabs so my 4-year-old son sees a group of muslim women at a seaside resort and he asks (this time not as loudly): "Mom, are they NINJAS"![]()
Children are very open and they speak their minds which could sometimes embarrass adults![]()
