Just accidentally traumatized my kids... (gross)

Can you use it as a learning experience? Teach the kids about eggs, how they are fertilised, how long a chick grows inside them, etc?

Or, as my 3 year old sister said, "No 'panks, jus' tisses!"

Agreed with the learning experience. As robins produce twice in a spring/summer season, leave them alone the next time. Chances are they'll nest in another location anyway.

My friend's dad is Filipino and challenged my friend to eat it once, he said it is completely disgusting. I asked if it was crunchy (because of the bones) and he said no, so I guess the bones aren't fully formed yet.

They actually did the Balut challenge in both the Asian AND the Australian versions of The Amazing Race. They had 8 balut per pair, each one had to eat 4 of them.

Surprisingly, nobody threw up.

Oh dear, but I'm sure years from now- if they can still remember this- they're going to look back on it and laugh.

"Hey mom, remember that time we found those robin eggs?"
"Oh god, yes I do! Why did you remind me."
"hahahaha!"

Not worst parent of the year at all! You were trying to do something really awesome

What have you done with the eggs now? Tossed 'em out? Buried them? Had a little funeral?

Two of them got tossed, one of them I figured may as well finish blowing it out, and then I washed it, and nuked it in the microwave. So, it's sitting on my windowsill at the moment. My kids don't want anything to do with it. :|
