AIBU?

To want DD's first sentences to be a little bit more 'lovely'

She is almost 2.

Her current favourites are
'Get off that'
'Don't do that, ever'
'That's not funny'
'I want to'

What on earth does this say about my parenting

She also stands with her hand on her hip, and wags her finger. I swear she doesn't get it from me.

Dd's first word was "no". Then came "no way".

DS' first word was No.

It's amazing how quickly they pick up the negatives.....

LOL.

When he was about 2, DS1 was found sitting on the floor talking to DS2 and saying 'How many times do I have to tell you, we have to cook the carrots first' in a v world-weary voice.

Both of them now enoy shouting:

'Do it RIGHT NOW!' at the tops of their voices.

dd started coming out with 'it's not fair' remarkably early on
(in appropriately whingey tone)
has now graduated to 'it's not my fault'

last week she kept saying 'kill the ladies' which I found slightly alarming
oh and apparently I am a pink power ranger

LOL
My daughter had a perfectly correct sentence and the longest at that time that was...
"No wait lady, stupid bloody idiot". The joys of having older brothers!! She can also makes noises as if she is going to vomit and burp and likes to say that people are fat and name the odd bit of the anatomy!
The bad words got such a reaction of laughter from the boys (who had been told off in the first place hence her copying) that she said it a lot. We have replaced it with Honeybunny, telling her that this is the worst word ever .

Yesterday DD (nearly 2) growled "get off!" when I went to pick her up. Then when I said "That's not very nice!" she fluttered her eyelashes and said "everybody get off the train"

Well done your DD though. DS is 2 in December and can say bin, poo and plan B amongst other limited things.

My dd delighted me with her first ever song last week...

I can smell doggy poo,
I can smell doggy poo,
I can smell doggy poo,
Doggy doggy poo poo.

Oh. Nice.

I constantly get uninvited to her party. As in, "You're not coming to my party now." Said with lip pushed out to a ludicrous degree.

As her Father who is almost certainly partially bankrolling her party ins is definitely going to be doing most of the donkey work, I find this irritating.

DS's first (nearly 10 years ago, sob) were 'Habye doh' and 'Habye tow', meaning 'goodbye dog' and 'goodbye cow'. we lived in the countryside.

Now we live in London.

It was all downhill after that

My mum and dad swear that my first sentence was "I can talk!"

Broccoli - reminds me of the classic my DS2 wrote a while back...

(to the tune of frere jaques)

Tuna pasta, tuna pasta
tombliboo, tombliboo
tuna tuna pasta
tuna tuna pasta
tombliboo, tombliboo

I am so proud.

Well DS's first fully formed phrase was "Tony Blair" (too much News 24).

DS1's first sentence (well, clause I suppose) was 'My bum noise', said with great pride (he'd just farted in the bath)
