Today, I was babysitting an 8-year-old boy. He was playing with Play-Doh and made a sculpture that looked like a penis. I tried to cover up and asked if it was an action figure. He looked at me like I was an idiot and said, "It's a DICK." FML

interesting, how does he know about these things in the first place?

He's a boy. He probably has one himself. He's also just 8 and might not realize how inappropriate such a sculpture is, because most likely his parents haven't openly discussed that genitalia-related art is generally frowned upon. Most parents just kind of ignore that part and hope the kid get the hint.

how long does an FML take to be confirmed??

I don't see why everyone thinks it is so horrible. He's a boy, so of course he is going to know about penises. He sees one every time he pees. Since he's only eight, he probably don't really know that genitalia-related art is generally frowned upon, he just saw something and made a sculpture of it. It's not like we all automatically know all the unspoken rules when we are born, and his parents probably hasn't talked to him very much about such things since parents generally don't. Yes, he used a bad word. But do he know it is bad? Maybe that is just how his parents talk, or his siblings/relatives/sibling's friends?

The kids going places! Probably not college but places nonetheles

At least he didn't reach into his pants when you asked him if he wanted to play with an action figure...

the British are obviously taking public school sex education too far

Kids these days... Got no one to blame but the parents

It's been over a dick-ade I've seen normal children.
