Sometimes I curse my self-inflicted "a picture with each post" rule. Today, we are going to talk about what you teach your kids to call their private parts. There’s really no appropriate picture to go along with that, so here’s a picture I took of some graffiti awhile back. Fun for all.

So, what do you teach your kids to call their private parts? Music City Bloggers recently had a conversation about just that. Some people don’t understand why other people teach their kids euphemisms instead of the real words. Other people don’t think the real words are appropriate for very young children and teach euphemisms to preserve a sense of innocence.

Shauna, like me, uses the grown-up words. Well, most of the time, anyway. Most of the "baby words" totally gross me out. Like pee-pee or wiener. It just about killed me to type that last one, seriously. So in my household, we use the grownup words.

One of the commenters, who clearly doesn’t have a lot of sons, asked "How often do you need to use the term [penis] in a day?  A week?" My response: "When you have a whole lot of boys in the house, you need to refer to it about 1,459 times a day. Approximately, of course."

So, Love Shak-ers, tell me what you do. Do you use the medical terms, or do you use euphemisms?
