Conversation with the kiddo:

The kiddo and I were watching season six of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. She likes it, but I think she's more of a Xena: Warrior Princess fan. Anyway, our conversation went as follows.

KIDDO: (after seeing a scene with Willow and Tara embracing) Wait a minute, they're gay?

ME: (feeling a bit uncomfortable) Yes sweety, they're gay.

KIDDO: (shrugs shoulders) I don't get it. Why are some people gay?

ME: Nobody really knows hon, it just happens.

KIDDO: Oh, well. They're just people like anybody else. I don't know why some people are mean to them. You shouldn't be mean to people because they're different.

ME: No baby, you shouldn't.

KIDDO; Are they gonna get married on the show?

ME: (Not wanting to spoil the ending of season six) No. Gay people can't get married.

KIDDO: Well there is one state where they can get married.

ME: (curious to know what she knows): What state is that?

KIDDO: California.

ME: How did you know this?

KIDDO: *sighs* Moooooom! I heard it on the news!

ME: Well excuuuuuse me.

KIDDO: (after watching some flirty dialog between Spike and Buffy) Buffy is NOT gay!

LOL! That kid really cracks me up sometimes, I swear!

This made my laugh. And she's only seven? Really....wow...

 

Well this made my night. I never watched the news when I was seven, I hardly do now.

LOL! She's so mature and politically oriented sometimes, the other times she's the typical seven year old goofy kid. LOL!

She told me she was angry with Obama the other day because he got mad at Bernie Mac for making jokes about Michelle. "He was just joking Mama!" She didn't take her Obama bumper sticker off her door though.

Re: This Just In, Buffy is NOT Gay
Must be a great kid. =]

I'm 12 and I think I can be mature and politically oriented... sometimes. I'm usually hyper though.

 

Haha... So she is interested in politics? Or is it just one of those stages that we kids get? =P

myclette on
Re: This Just In, Buffy is NOT Gay
I think she may be interested in politics because she's just so darned opinionated.

Re: This Just In, Buffy is NOT Gay
Well good for her! =]

 

Bet she can keep a conversation going for hours if she wanted too.

Wow!  Kids are learning things so early nowadays.  She is such a loving and accepting girl!  Way to go momma!  You are raising a great kiddo!  =)

Re: This Just In, Buffy is NOT Gay
Hah, you should see how she goes on her "alcohol is bad" tirade. I should have named her Temperance. She was so upset at her father for drinking a wine cooler.

Re: This Just In, Buffy is NOT Gay
My thoughts exactly, LOL!  After I finished reading, my first thought was "I'd love to hear a convo between E and Sarah."  LOL!  The other day we were listening to NPR and she wanted to know what a trophy wife was?  LOL!  I made Garrett explain it, but I think he kept it was too simple and now I'm waiting for the next time Sarah sees a pretty woman and asks her if she's a "trophy wife", LOL!
