No Help!

Well...you guys are sure a lot of help! =)

I thought I'd share this story that happened the other day...
So, I will sometimes review what my students are learning (or what they are supposed to be learning) in their classes. Their science teacher sent me with a list of questions. They have been studying genetics and the last question asked about what cells are needed to make a baby. The following conversation took place when they got to that question...
Student 1 (boy): So, how do the babies get out?
Student 2 (girl): Umm...
Me: Well, the way my baby got out was they had to cut him out of my stomach.
Student 2 (girl) (after student 1 left the room): I know where they really come out. (whispers and points) Down there. But, I don't know how they get out. It's just weird.
Thank goodness it was right when they were supposed to be going.

I then got an email from the teacher saying that Student 1 wanted to know how the skin grows back when they peel it off the mother to get the baby
