We're basically raising Ivy at the bar on the corner so I don't think the conversation about being drunk will be too difficult.
I'm more worried about the conversation about drugs, particularly when she's older because I am definitely taking a "do as I say, not as I did" stance on them.

Ah, Aidan instigated the sex talk with Chris the other day:
Aidan : dad, jake says sex is when a man puts his penis in a woman's vagina and wiggles it around?
Chris:(ok, here we go) well, jake's right, son.
A: nooooooooooo ha ha ha ha (pauses) ........Sooooo have you done it?
Chris: (looks around for ejector seat) where do you think you came from?
A: so that *is* how babies are made? Wooooooow........
Chris: Ok, time to go to school.
Then last night A piped up 'mummy, which sex did you like best, when you made me, or when you made Molly?'
