Sleepless nights, dirty diapers, the fear of missing out on the best preschool in town. No doubt about it, being a parent is tough.
As parents, we want to be the best role models and even though we try to watch what we say when little ears are present, we sometimes slip up. Colloquialisms like “blue balls,” innocent phrases like “I want a boy toy” at the fast food franchise, or “your package is huge” at the post office are just waiting to sneak into our conversations with kids.
It’s impossible not to laugh!
Collected by Sunshine Sweet and delightfully illustrated by Emmi Ojala, Blue Balls Parenting is Dirty Business allows us to enjoy a few chuckles while we tackle the serious work of raising kids in the 21st century.

Blue Balls Parenting is Dirty Business eBook Sunshine Sweet Emmi Ojala Reviews
Let me start by saying this is a beautifully illustrated book. The simple drawings depict the narration perfectly. The narration, however, is a bit confusing. I'm not sure who the target audience for this book is. It reads like a children's book, short phrases in large print, but the innocent expressions leave me feeling too uncomfortable to read to a child as I would any other story (and let me clarify, there is no actual story line here) and as an adult, I don't know why I would need this book in my collection. I enjoyed flipping through it, but ultimately, it left me feeling a little slimy.
This little book looks like a children’s book. It has cute pictures, big words with only a few per page, and only 32 un-numbered pages. I don’t think, however, you’ll be reading it to your toddler.
Let me quote the introduction "We’re taught we have to watch what we say when little ears are present, but good news there is a loophole. Even though society and dirty minds have taken away so many expressions, the innocence of children allows us to bring them back and get some cheap chuckles along the way."
Then we find 30 individual pages sorted into three unnecessary sections, leaving 27 pages each with a mildly dirty phrase illustrated by a cute, inoffensive children’s book drawing. For instance, the words at the top of one page say, “Only Mommy and Daddy can screw.” The picture is of an adult bird holding a screwdriver away from a toddler bird who has been working on screwing two boards together. You get the idea.
I don’t want to give away everything, so I’ll give you only two more of the phrases. You can imagine your own pictures, which will give you a reason to buy the book—so you can see if your innocent mental illustration of each phrase is as good as the one in the book. The book uses large birds as characters in the illustrations. Hmm … let’s go with
• Don’t stop! Don’t stop!
• Lick from the bottom up.
I’ll probably reveal some essential fact about me by telling you that the second one is not a phrase I’ve heard used in a carnal sense. But it’s probably good advice, I guess.
What I’ve told you so far is enough for you to decide to either eagerly go looking for this cute little book of mildly titillating cleverness or turn up your nose at the distasteful idea of such admittedly mild adolescent prurience. Both reactions are valid, as are shades in between.
My reaction? I’m in between, but shading toward the latter view. Not surprising, since I’m an old codger with conservative leanings. Still, I wouldn’t want it around the house when children are present. Each page is innocent enough on its own, but in truth there’s no reason for the book—for a child. It has no story. Sooner or later, a child is going to wonder what this dumb—to them—book is about. Explanations could prove awkward.
I’m also left wondering about the author’s name. Sunshine Sweet? I probably wouldn’t put my real name on it, either.
