To hate anything other than the term "fart"

[DrinkFromMyFountain]

I know it's a bit uncouth to hear small children yelling "someone's farted" but the phrases pump, pop, trump, parp and fluff really make me cringe!

Let off wind is probably the only other phrase that doesn't make my teeth itch!

What do your children call it?

Fart. I am with you, call it what it is.

Sometime we call it stinky fart too.

Couldn't agree more!

We say 'fart'- it drives my MiL nuts!! She's always trying to come up with 'better' words for it.

Sorry love but a fart is a fart

do you mean lower windypops?

I hate fart too though. Maybe it's better left unsaid :o

A bottom cough?

YY a fart is a fart.

It makes me ragey when grown adults say "excuse me I need to trump"

Tummy Shame in this house (although there are no DCs involved I may add)

We say fart. DD says "Pop hahaha!" but she's 25 months so that's OK :)

Bottom cough makes me laugh, although you've just reminded me that my grandma used to call it a "botty burp" oh the shame.

Not that we all sit around at home commenting on our farts or anything.

Actually..we do

piano at 25 months I will let you off

Horse and cart?

YANBU.

Everything else is just twee and cringesome. People who say 'windypops' should be publically flogged.

Stop trying to make farts cuter.

I think fart is a horrible horrible word and I discourage mine from using it! They trump or pass wind. I say they as I mean the children - I am a laydee and therefore never pass wind unless I can blame one of them

In our house we emit essence of shit.

"Fart" here at Hand Towers or ocasionally "guff" which I don't think is nearly as twee as the other euphemisms listed above and which sends our toddler into hysterics. I heard a rumble from her the other day, and dashed over potty in hand to which she casually turned and said "Just a guff mummy".

I hate it. Here in Sweden 'fart' means 'speed'. It's very distracting when driving to see signs warning of a 'fart kontroll' zone.

There is no 'fart kontroll' in this house.

We have the windows open though.

Trump isn't twee it's retro!

You couldn't be more unreasonable if you tried.
It is an awful word, if it has to be discussed then in our house we say pass wind.
I have never said it, growing up the term was blown off I think, my Gran used to ask us which of us was flatulent.

I think fart is a horrible word but there aren't really any alternatives that i like either. Pop off is the best of a bad bunch i suppose.

'Passed wind' sounds so delicate, my farts are more like 'channelled hurricane'.

Poom poom means big fart in Gujarati. I'd rather like my 3 year old niece to say that.

Farts and farting are the way forward... Sometimes literally.

DP says "has the cat pumped?"

Lol.
