Seriously Steve,
(presuming your original post was serious)
If you want to make a success out of this parenting thing...

the last thing you should do is fob off their questions (we'll ask grandpa one day...)
If you want them to come to you with their questions and issues you have to be up front and matter of fact with them all. No matter how painful.
Don't make them feel awkward about asking it.
You want them to be able to talk to you, that way you may be able to head off some serious issues before they become issues.

Anyway, thats just IMHO.
Good luck!
