A DAD captured the adorable moment his little girl told him she was ‘done’ with sausages after he was brutally honest about where they come from.

There are a few subjects which parents tread with caution, including how babies are made and where our food comes from.

So when four-year-old Erin Copeland asked her dad about the sausages on her plate, he decided she was ready for the truth.

Brian, 30, had made Erin a plate of bangers and mash, when her curiosity got the better of her.

Holding nothing back, Brian said: “We turn the pigs into sausages, the sausages are pigs.”

Looking at her dinner in shock, Erin says: “But that’s not very nice!”

Erin asks why we eat the animals, and Brian asks her if she thinks the sausage is “tasty”.

But she then adds that she’s “done” with sausages after finding out where they come from.

Brian said: “Erin asked about where her food came from and I told her how the sausages come from pigs.

“I was quite specific about it, I told her how we take the pigs and make sausages out of them with machines.

“She said it wasn’t nice and wouldn’t eat the sausages on her plate! She eats them now but her favourite things are cucumbers and carrots!

“She doesn’t have a problem with it now.

“Food is a big thing and I think it’s important children know where it comes from.

“I feel like if she’s old enough to ask the question then she’s old enough to get the answer.

“I love it when she asks questions, being a parent you get a lot of questions but I don’t think children should be shut down when asking questions.

“Erin always asks more questions and I think it’s great!”

Brian uploaded the exchange to YouTube, where it’s received more than 500,000 views.

He added: “I was not expecting anything when I uploaded it, it was mainly for my mother. I uploaded the video onto Reddit and it just blew up! Lots of people loved it.

“Some people are appalled by it, some think it’s the right thing to do and find it really cute and some people say I should show her the conditions some animals live in but I think she’s a bit too young for that!

“Erin is just really bubbly and always asks questions and I love answering them!”

Plus these parents are taking ordinary Ikea furniture and making them into bespoke pieces for their kids.

Meanwhile this mum transformed an Ikea clock to make her kids stay in bed for longer.

And this mum gets her kids to keep quiet by telling them they need to lie still to ‘charge’ their glow-in-the-dark pyjamas.
