Kids say the darndest things -- this is pretty funny!

We were at my wife's college reunion and were talking about things that kids say. One of my wife's friends told us something her five year old son had said. They were driving in the car one day, and the boy asked, "Mommy, are some boys' penises different than others? Like they have extra skin or something?"

The mom said, "Yes, boys are born with the extra skin and some have it cut off -- it's called 'circumcision'."

Boy: "Why do they have it cut off?"

Mom: "Well, some people thinks it makes it easier for boys to keep clean."

Boy: "Mommy, I had my extra skin cut off, huh?"

Mom: "Yes, you did."

The boy was quiet for awhile then asked, "Mom, what did they do with the extra skin? Did they add it to my balls?"

:spray:

I googled, "what do they do with circumcision skin?", and at the bottom of the page was a thread from DU's archive:
