No kids of my own, but the practicalities I got from my parents were:
1. When you get asked a question by your kids, tell them what's up. Don't waltz around difficult subjects - I knew were babies came from before I was six
2. Never, ever EVER cop out with, 'You'll understand when you're older', 'Because I said so', 'That's too hard for you' or similar rubbish - never forget that your kids are smarter and more adaptable than you think.
