Let him have his innocence

Today, my six-year-old son told me how it was funny that there's "a food chicken and an animal chicken". That's going to be a fun one to explain to him. FML

I watched the Sound of Music with a 3 and 7 year old I was babysitting. The one and only question they had was "Who is Hitler?" Now THAT was bad.

That's precious! Good luck with the talk.

Well, he doesn't get those retarded genes from himself!

We kill them. We also eat their unborn babies. On that note dinner tonight is fried chicken and fried eggs.

Oh that'd be tough to tell him... -Audrey

I would probably just let it be. He'll figure it out eventually. No need to traumatize a child with a talk. It's more likely he'll understand it's natural when he's older - or go veg.

Talk to him about it, and if he says he doesn't want to eat animals anymore, respect him. I have many patients who have been raised raw vegan since birth, and they are the healthiest kids in my practice.

lol. Does he really need to know? lol! Just kidding. Good luck with the chat. Bring Kleenex, just in case. And maybe serve something other than chicken for supper that evening. :)
