Me: ...so when you go walking in the woods, you'll see lots of big stones and sometimes when you look under them you'll find a baby which you can keep and take home with you. And that's where babies come from.
Small child: So people who have more babies look under a lot of stones?
Me: Well, some people have more time than others to go up to the woods and look. We call them 'scroungers', because they spend their time scrounging around under stones in the woods rather than going to work.
Small child: So did mummy find me under a stone?
Me: Well, let's just say that your mummy has been into the woods with a lot of boys and leave it at that.
