What happens if all the people in the world die?
Yes thats what Claire asked us the other day.
Darn those Disney people with the third little Mermaid movie. Ariel's mother is killed in a boating accident in the first 5 mins..
a few weeks ago Phil and I were heading out to a 60th Birthday (yes we are getting old) and we had put that on while we were getting organised... Then Claire realised what death is and what it actually means.. She had asked a few times before about where my mum was etc, but this time she actually realised that people die and they are gone forever. there were quite a few tears and she was asking Phil if he was going to die.. oohh dear.. there was much hugging onto him and quite a bit of worry... so we eventually got her calmed down that we weren't going anywhere anytime soon (we hope!)
so the other day we got what happens if all the people in the world die? oohh dear..
we tried to explain that that would never happen, and we got BUT what happens if it does.. then I went with the new babies are born all the time approach and then we got BUT who will look after the babies if there aren't any more people.. In fact I can't remember how we settled it.
