Is your child finding your vibrator your worst fear?
Here’s a story a patient just relayed to me: Her 10-year old son, now 24, was digging through her night table and pulled out her vibrator. It was penis shaped. She saw him shaking and rattling it. In horror, but trying to remain calm, she said:” Ummm…What are you doing?” He said: “This is so cool. I’m trying to get it to work.” A bit taken aback she said: “What exactly do you think that is?” He looked at her as if she were a bit doddy and said: “Mom! It’s a weenie flashlight!”
Once again, it just goes to show that kids absorb just as much information as they are ready for and not much more!
In the meantime, her 24 year old son is getting married and she is considering giving his new wife, her very own “weenie flashlight.”
