Sex chat
In our house we don’t do it much but we do talk about it - a lot.
“Mummy, can a woman make a baby on her own?” asks my five year-old daughter.
“No, she needs sperm from a man to make the baby grow inside her.”
“How does the sperm get into the woman?”

My son tells me that in their sex education at school (he’s 10) they have a cartoon of people ‘doing it’. At one point, the voice over says ’sometimes the penis can get hard, and often it feels nice’. (I’d hate to be a teacher in there with all the kids!) Anyhow, my son’s friend leaned over and said ‘No it doesn’t, it hurts!’..
