French Kissing and Oprah (Why I am not a TV Dad)


One evening many years ago my then three year old asks me; "Daddy what is French kissing?"

I almost wrecked the truck I turned around to look at him so fast.

Regaining control of the truck I composed myself trying not to laugh.

In my best Ward Cleaver voice I asked him; "Where did you hear about that?"

"From Hannah at school" he said

"So did she kiss you or one of the other boys?" I asked him not sure I wanted the answer.

"No, Daddy she was talking about it. So what is it?" He asked certainly not letting the subject go.

Thinking an honest, but vague response was best I said "it is when big people touch their tongues when they kiss"

"Ewwwww yucky" he said to my great relief

I had to say something to the teachers about this. The next morning I told the teacher what had happened.

They responded Hannah did it again. She has older brothers and sisters that think it is funny to get her to say shocking things.

Perhaps my not so deft handling of this question and many others is why last night my now preteen declared with absolute conviction:

“Dad Oprah is smarter than you are.”

“OK, why do you say that?” I replied using small words

“She is on TV and you are you” He responded confidently

“Being on TV makes her smarter than me?” I mumbled feeling my IQ dropping like a dress on prom night

“She talks to all kinds of people about many topics. She has to be smart to do that.” He gleefully said.

“Yes she is smart. I am too. We have never met, it is kind of hard to compare us” I feebly responded.

I parked the truck and said “Still think she is smarter?”

“HELLO” yelled the smiling Hooters girls

“No Dad I don’t” He said sheepishly

Ward Cleaver has nothing on me

Until Next Time
I am as always no TV Dad, but I am smarter than your average bear

At least someone thinks so

I am probably the only Father whose son asks "When are you going to get a hair cut?"

Old age and trickery win again. Sometimes it hardly seems fair, but I have to be ready for him at any moment.

Three years ago ... sitting in the living room ... where I comment on a lady's beauty on the television set.

13-year-old OP #2 to SAFIRA, "Mom, are you bisexual?"

SAFIRA to 13-year-old OP #2, "Why yes. Yes I am."

13-year-old OP #2 to SAFIRA, "I thought so. So-and-So (a friend of his) is, too. I might have her talk to you at some point."

Then 17-year-old OP #1 walks-in, shakes his head, and walks right back out.

This is my blog - [blog _Safira]. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
