What made you think that telling a little girl that one animal is the tail of another severed from them that has grown a face would be a good idea.

"Tails with faces" does not automatically mean severed tail off another animal. She was probably referring to that all neck vs. all tail joke.

What are tails usually on? Animals.

Why would a tail not be on an animal? Someone cut it off.

Children have very literal interpretations of things.

Now I'm about to cry

Please don't make the same mistake when she's older and describe sperm as being just tails with faces.

I literally laughed out loud. oh how true that is and I never thought of it that way.

Shouldn't you be telling her your a snake

But snakes are so cute though... :’(

I just got a new perspective on snakes and I don't know how I feel about it.

I thought they were faces with tails...
