Children Of Aging L.A. Hipsters Say The Darndest Things--Sleepover Edition
Scene: Parent of Elijah's friend, dropping off kid for Saturday-night sleepover.
Regina: I TIVO'ed The Golden Compass. Do you mind if they watch it?
Parent: You can show them porn for all I care.
Elijah: What's porn?
Regina: Sexy movies.
Elijah: I'd rather watch The Golden Compass.
Comments
Before the onslaught of child abuse accusations and Gawker-like tirades I'd like to point out that the parent was, of course, joking.

Neal: So how do we thank you for the paragraph in Alternadad. I have told all of our kids that they were lucky to have been brought up in a coffeehouse. They are different adults, but really good with people.

I want to drink a beer with that kid's dad! The Golden Compass has got to be better than any porn out there with "golden" in the title. Write more!

haha, Elijah is so cute!!
One of my friends said they used affection as a form of discipline since most kids are naturally revulsed by such stuff. Whenever her kid acted up, she and her husb. would start passionately making out. She said it was more effective than almost anything else she'd ever tried. Cracks me up to think of it!
