Have you ever been caught off guard by a question from a child? It can happen to anyone, even dads! One little boy bravely asked his father a question that left him stumped. “Dad, I know that babies come from mommies’ tummies. But how do they get there in the first place?” The innocence in his voice was clear, but the dad struggled to find an answer.

Sometimes, as parents, we feel the need to have all the answers. But it’s okay if we don’t know everything! The little boy sensed his father’s uncertainty and reassured him, “You don’t have to make something up, Dad. It’s okay if you don’t know the answer.”

Children have a remarkable ability to accept when adults don’t have all the answers. They appreciate honesty and authenticity. So, as parents and grandparents, it’s important to create an environment where questions are encouraged and curiosity is celebrated.

Biology might not be our strong suit, but there are many ways we can explore and learn together. Books, websites, and even educational videos can help us understand the wonders of life. And who knows, maybe we’ll even learn something new alongside our little ones!

So, the next time you find yourself in a similar situation, remember that it’s alright to not have all the answers. Embrace the opportunity to explore and learn together. After all, the journey of discovery is just as important as the destination.
