Beware of Dinosaurs

So, I thought that Barney was pretty simple and easy to understand (too easy, don't get me started on the gender stereotypes on that show). We don't watch it much, just if the kids are up extra-early, i.e. before 6 a.m. As they were today.

Anyway, DD said, "Here comes Barney and his babies." Meaning those other little dinosaurs (Baby Bop, BJ, and Biff? Riff? Whatever).

Sure, makes sense. Anytime there is a grownup and a child, we think of the relationship as parental.

Except, I'm pretty sure in this case, it's not true. Just can't see Barney with kids. Are they cousins? Friends? Do dinosaurs in Barneyland even have children? Does Barney have sex?

Nope, it's way too early in the morning to think about that.
