If your kids hang out with any American kids, they might have heard the term from them. Teabagging has become a common term over here. After the Tea Party started, some commentator, I can’t remember who, Matthews or Stewart I think, called the Tea Party a bunch of teabaggers. Since then the term has become a common insult, and I have no trouble believing some kid overhearing it and getting a hasty crotch explanation from the adult.

Visitor » You are entitled to your opinion, I just wish you didn’t feel that you needed to be anonymous. We thought long and hard before we explained it to the boys, we left them with the thought that teabagging was what they explained, until it happened the decond time to Mini. Them we felt the need to explain. We have always been open and honest with the boys about body parts etc and called them by the real terms. As far as I am aware they havent told any other children, it was just a conversation that we had with them. I do not think I have shattered their innocence or any other child’s. I hope by learning that these acts are wrong the boys will not do them to others,

Am I the only one who doesnt agree with what you did. You should have just told them that it was wrong and not to do that again. Now all that will happen is that your son will go explaining it to some other poor kid who will tell his horrified Mum. I love my childrens innocence and would be thinking there was something seriously wrong if my 5 year old came home describing a sexual act of putting a scrotum in his mouth!! Big difference between that and what your children demonstrated dont you think?
