We've given Meg a complex.
I think we may have emphasized the principle that Jesus is always with us and watching us too much. Yesterday (and again this morning) Megan had to go potty and was convinced that -"Heavenly Father and all the people in heaven are going to watch me."
We stood there (well, I stood while Megan did the potty dance) for 5 minutes while I tried to convince her that nobody in heaven was going to watch her go potty.
I'm pretty sure my explanation was not scripturally sound... "Ummm Heavenly Father is always watching you... except for when you go potty."
I fear that I am really messing my kids up.

too funny!!
That is hilarious. And you are not messing your kids up any more than the rest of us. And anyhow, who up in heaven actually WANTS to watch anyone go potty, so you are probably right!
I'm glad you cleared that up for me. I have often wondered myself if we have COMPLETE privacy in the bathroom!
I always get such a good laugh when you do a blog about something your kids have said! You've got to wonder where they think of this stuff! (I loved the conversation about the chicken over dinner.) :)
This made me laugh outloud.
We can never win. Never, ever, ever. !!!! :) :)
I think it sounds scriptural. I have the other problem. Sam thinks that Heavenly Father doesn't watch him when he's doing something wrong. Megan is too cute!
That's Awesome! With brilliant explanations like that, you should be in Primary-- answering all the "tough" questions we don't know the answers to!!
