[Editor's Note: There are things you don't expect to have to explain to your children until they are older. Sometimes we're forced to answer questions earlier than we plan because things happen in our lives or our children are introduced to concepts beyond their years by their own peers. Angela at Slaughterhouse Rules recently had to tackle one that I hope to avoid for quite some time -- and you might be surprised where she learned the term. Have you had to explain the term "booty call" to your kids? -Jenna]
How the Word "Booty Call" Was a Big Part of My Morning:
“Hey Mom? What’s a booty call?”
I’m pretty sure time stopped.
I stared at her, wide-eyed, for a good five seconds before I could find my voice and asked, “WHERE DID YOU HEAR THAT WORD?”
(Which… by the way, was TOTALLY the wrong response. For future situations, my reaction will be one of non-alarm. Alarm only piques curiosity. Lesson learned.)
She just stared back at me with a face that said, “Ok. I’ve accidentally wandered onto shaky ground. How can I put this thing in reverse?”
By this time, Estella Dru has overheard and, because of my response, is now curious as well and fully inserts herself into the conversation with, “Booty call? How can you call a booty?”
