Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 Your explanation was probably easier to understand than the one he'll get at school.

Ever tried it? Last night I got to have that priviledge when presented with the question " Why are some cats born without a tail " Why do they have to ask that kind of question? I'm not a flipping scientist for crying out loud. I'll probably be shot when he finally gets into a science class. This is what I told him... I said that people are made with something like a recipe. " Cakes and cookie recipes call for flour, eggs, sugar etc. And people also have recipe's. Everyone's recipe is different and is made with different things. YOUR recipe calls for green eyes, tickely tummy and big feet. Your sisters recipe called for green eyes, blonde hair and a big dose of stubborness. " He seemed to get it though because he then " And the recipe says that I'm a boy? " Yeppers I told him and Pumpkins' recipe called for a cat with no tail. >sigh< His teachers are going to just SHOOT me! ROFL! K Cheers!

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 at the tech museum in san jose there is a current exhibit on genetics. at the entrance to the exhibit is a floor-to-ceiling model of DNA made of cookbooks. i don't recall how far they take the analogy; but, it sounds to me like like you are in good company with your recipe explanation. sarah , WoobeyQueen@a... wrote: > an eight year old. > > Ever tried it?
