In the beginning we referred to the peepee only because it was easier to pronounce when he was just learning to speak, but I always told him that his peepee is called a penis. And i find now that he is older we hardly use peepee anymore. He also knows Sumayah has a vagina. Sumayah can't say vagina yet so we talk about jayjay for now, but as soon as she can say the proper word thats what we'll refer to.tasneemhttp://mumdrum.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410985627936537274.post-43566355751860424352010-10-06T08:47:51.271+02:002010-10-06T08:47:51.271+02:00It is technically incorrect to teach a girl that h...It is technically incorrect to teach a girl that her external genitalia is a vagina as that is an internal part of her genitalia. I teach my child that she has a vulva and the general area is referred to when I bath her as her genitals.<br />My sister who is a nurse and really should know better has taught her daughter to say vagina and even then they end up saying Jie-na when she baths her. Silly really, but I feel if you are going to do something properly you should really make sure you use the correct terms.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06414628587768482837noreply@blogger.com
