Watching Babe - telling the truth about sausages
I'm watching Babe for the first time, and the pigs have been carted off in a truck.
DS1 (3yo) asked where they're going.
I normally just give honest answers about questions, but this is one of those things which I'm just not sure he needs to know right now.
I'm a little bit torn - at the dinner table I have no issue saying that sausages are made out of cow, and the roast is made out of sheep, etc, but I'm not sure that I want him to be up all night upset about eating Babe's mum in dumplings tomorrow.
What do you tell the kids? And at what age?
