Today, my son became convinced that his father cheated and we put the fertilized egg inside me to cover the whole thing up. He won't stop calling me "host mother". FML

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Let me get this straight. Your child believes that his father knocked some other woman up, then stole the embryo/fetus, implanted it into you and you raised the child as your own with your unfaithful husband and pretended nothing happened? Sounds plausible.

And what gave him this idea?

Ha host mother. That's really funny actually.

I doubt a small child would think of this. I'd imagine the son is a teenager or older.

Is that even possible? Sounds like a job for Mythbusters!!

#51 I don't know what dumb kids you know, but yes they're smart enough to come up with a wild story like this. A normal, smart child would think of this. An idiotic, abnormal teen would think of this.

56 why would a small child know how egg fertilization works. That's a little more technical than most small children would be able to grasp

Did he just watch the new X-Files episode?

Has he been watching a lot of Sci-fi shows? Or maybe just doesn't understand how pregnancy works? Because apparently he thinks you're part seahorse.

How old is he? If young then this is quite cute, if mid to late teens or older a genuine belief in such a thing might indicate a serious disorder such as schizophrenia. If there's even a small chance of that get him to the doctors.

Wonder where THAT thought came from... Sounds almost alien-like.

Creative kid.
