AIBU?

To feel sad that DS (5) is so keen on telling the truth all the time?

OK so I am but still...

Earlier on I did a quite smelly botty bubble. It was SBD. DH unexpectedly came back into the room (thought he was in the shower) and said "OH MY GOD HAS SOMETHING DIED IN HERE??" I said "Ha ha no, little Cunting just parped." Little Cunting side eyes me and goes "No I DIDN'T. Fibber. It was YOU"

Also, in a fit of pique the other day I said something quite rude about a boy in his class (he has been physically hurting DS though) andimmediately I corrected myself "Mummy shouldn't have said that, mummy was wrong, please don't repeat that." As soon as I get him to the class door, DS spots his nemesis and says "Oh look there's !" then he looks at his teacher and says "Mummy said that name,she told me not to tell anyone though"

Just remembered another one from my precious DD -

"Eew, yuck, mummy I can smell poo. Did you blow off again?"

You are exceptionally classy, Bups. I've read about you in Burke's Peerage an' all.

Not quite the same but - DD1 (not quite 3) has taken on board the alliterative qualities of 'Silly Billy' and now applies it to ^everything. Yoghurt boggurt, rabbit babbit, Daddy Baddy. Guess what I am?

Ever tried to explain to a toddler why they shouldn't shout Mummy Bummy at full volume in the fruit & veg aisle, without making it even more amusing to them? Impossible.

I'd had a few drinks the night before and The following day we saw my martial arts class instructor. I had decided to sack off training that night to spend the evening having dinner with husband as we hadn't seen each other all week.

Instructor asked was I training tonight and when I said no my 7 year old says "it's because she had too much alcohol last night".

I wouldn't have minded as much but it wasn't even the reason but I felt I would make it worse by denying it.

I was told that discretion is a skill that is 'supposed' to come into play at age 6.
Its all very well when a cute 3 or 4 year old tells the truth/says what they think... mummy, why is that lady so old/fat/ have hairs on her chin.
But supposedly, by 6, they are supposed to have learnt the social skills, and have the empathy to , well, presumably, know that they wouldn't like it, thus not say it to others.
So when people say, oh he's 16/18/24 and still does it, I'm not sure that's o.k. There's blunt and there's abbrasive and then there's autiuistic. Fine line between them all me thinks.
It is just a developemnt of social skills. Op can work on that with her ds, as can we all.

Walking home with a few friends and their mums (who I don't know well) and someone going too fast in their car - one mum said "what a silly man going so fast". DS1 pipes up "Yes, he's a massive cock, that's what my Daddy says in the car"

Shame.......

In doctors waiting room biggish lady came out ahead of us. 3 year old pipes up 'that's a very fat doctor mummy' Blush I now find myself distracting her every time I see someone larger. I tried explaining to her that saying that would make the lady feel sad but she didn't really take it in so I'm just waiting for it to happen again. I don't know where it came from either, we never comment on people's weight in front of her even our own. Sad

DD (3) has just this morning asked very loudly why a lady in the hospital waiting room had no hair (she was clearly a chemotherapy patient, but luckily was lovely about it) and why another lady in the supermarket had only 3 teeth.

I have my own 6yr old backseat driver who keeps a close eye on my speed and tells when I'm 'breaking the law's and then loudly announces it to everyone at our destination. The problem is I don't speed - she just doesn't get that different roads have different speed limits.

Most kids thiS age are honest- that's why when ds announced loudly in the supermarket 'mummy don't buy too much wine and don't drink it when you first wke up' people looked at me like I was a raging alcoholic. I have a drink maybe 3/4 times a year

Hi, Buppy.

Zombie waved at you yesterday as she and DZoH were driving through your town on our way home from a weekend with DSD1. Well, waved vaguely in your direction to be precise.
