My parents didn't tell the myths that most kids get fed like Santa Claus, babies come from cabbage patches, but they did allow myths we picked up from others to florish. I was four or five when my mother was pregnant with my sister, so I knew that storks (whatever they were)didn't bring them, but they grew in my mummy's tummy. But, when a friend at school said the baby's get there when mum and dad kissed, they conveniently let that myth continue for sometime until they felt I was old enough to understand the truth.
If....and big if here...if there was ever a chance that I would have children I'd hope I'd tell them the truth. I want my children to trust my word and not come to question what I say to be either a myth or some silly adult lie.
