So I'm thinkin' He'd be okay with that. In fact, I'd venture to guess that He gets a kick out of your son being a boy. :)Elaina M.

I raised two boys who were very competitive in the gas department, and still are at 29 and 32. They actually perform duets.<br /><br />I was not a very good disciplinarian. I blame it on the combination of high fiber suppers and their dad working second shift.

I have to tell you, it's every bit as noisy but not nearly as smelly. But he's done it in the most inappropriate places. My 4-year-old loves burping, any chance he can get. But like Michelle, I have a daughter who also enjoys joining the fun. I came from a family of sisters only. We were not fascinated by such things. Lord, help me! :)Roxane B.

For his sake and his mother's I'm pretty happy about that. <br /><br />Speaking of other names for the passing of gasses, my kids are pretty inventive and tend to merge words and ideas to explain what is going on. They are familiar with burping and know the name of the body part that makes the sound, so when asked they all seem to have come to the conclusion that the proper description of the event is "my butt burped."Nick the Geekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494956043889392219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7558065865093418290.post-85753503460948128222009-11-16T09:59:45.158-06:002009-11-16T09:59:45.158-06:00Oh, my.
