Isaac's cub scout leader, Rochelle, (who is also a very good friend of mine) called me up the other day to share this story of what happened this week at scouts. Beware: some content may not be suitable for young children! ;) Hee, hee!
Apparently at scouts they were learning about different types of tools, so Rochelle had gone online to a "word-search generator" used by schools and home schooling parents all over the country to create a tool word search. All she had to do was type in the names of the tools the boys were to find and it would hide them and fill in all the letters. It claimed to have a strict filter in place to avoid any type of inappropriate words from being generated. Well, maybe it wasn't quite strict enough.
A few minutes into the searching, one of the boys found the word "sex" and announced it to everyone. Isaac found it soon enough himself and all the boys were snickering and saying the forbidden word repeatedly. The leaders were trying to get them back on track and one of them said, "Now boys, sex is not a tool." Isaac promptly responded, "It is if you are trying to have a baby!"
At least we know he was listening when we had that little talk a few months ago...

this story keeps making me laugh! It's really making the rounds. I heard it first from Chad (who heard it from your husband) so then we asked Rochelle about it tonight and then we talked about it again at book club. I'm still laughing about it!
I'm just glad Garrett wasn't at Scouts on Tuesday!
Gotta love 8-11 year old boys!
You didn't know sex ed was part of cub scouts now, did ya? heh heh heh... Actually, I'm trying to get released without making my motives obvious! Kidding, kidding (sort of). :)
Love the story, it is always nice to think that are kids may actually be listening to us.
SO GREAT!! Isaac is one sharp kid!
