To ask what questions your dcs asked which left you lost for words??

[trebless]

So 7 year old dd strutted into the long room and said the following:

'Mum you know I never ever want a boyfriend, I never want to be married and I do not want to have babies so that means I'm gonna live with you forever and ever and ever'.....

Me: 'Oh well that would be lovely sweetheart but you might cha.....'

Dd interrupting me 'but not really forever because you are going to get old and then you will be dead. I'll probably ask Lexie (her cousin) to come live with me then. I'm having your room though'

No words from me to reply. Somehow proud of her forward thinking though

DD (then 6) : do you like Elton John? I like Elton John, and by the way, why do you smell like chicken nuggets? You’re supposed to be a vegetarian!

DD (now 7) : do you want to know how I know that I’m not adopted?
Me: erm...okay...
DD: cos you let me live in you.

DS then about 4 to my female friend I would like it if you became Mummy's girlfriend, you can sleep in my bed. 😳

DS Mummy how many things would a person need to do to get thrown out of primary school?

Me I am not sure

DS I thought maybe 12.

Me Maybe

DS How many things have I done already? 😱

My then 5 year old: "mammy, why do bubbles pop when I touch them but sometimes also all on their own without anyone touching them??"
Me: ".....🤔......."
DS: " why mammy?"
Me "... that's a great question honey.... for your teacher!"
😁

Thats so interesting! I do things children are more likely to have links with people of the past.

When I was young girl we were driving in the country, my grandparents, mum and I and as we drove past a house out there. My demeanour changed and I told them about how I lived there with my so many kids and a man came in and robbed and killed me etc. My nan said the hairs on her neck stood up the way I spoke about it. Very different to my normal self.

DD (15!!!)
‘What’s external mean again?’
Me ‘Outside’
Looks at me blankly.
‘It’s written on my eczema cream, external use only’
‘Yes, so don’t put it in your mouth or nose, use it on the outside of your body’
‘Oh, I thought I had to go outside to use it’
‘Really?!’
She meant it too!

My nan and i was talking and she wanted to know something about a certain museum
She said "Ask that man in your phone"
(Meaning google :)

She then says "Has he replied yet"

Bless her

I was ordering a kebab and asked my nan what she wanted chicken or lamb,
She said i will have lamb, because the chicken might be dog :0)

We live in London

Stage whisper from dd, five. Why are all these people here to see father xmas don't they know he's just an old man paid to dress up because the real one is too busy.

DGD age 6 to her mum. ' what's erectile disfunction'.? Mum splutters a bit..
DGD.. Well Google it '
Same child.' Did I die before I was born

DD2 (4) "Mummy when you die, please can I have your coat with the furry collar?"

Every time I wear it she comments how much she loves the coat and can't wait to wear it .

DD when she was 3... how did monkeys become people?

When she was 5...mummy, did they have hospitals when you were born? Me, yes, why? DD, oh well they didn’t have hospitals when Jesus was born and you are as old as he is...

Same DD the other week (now 10)

Mum, is a whore the same as a prostitute?

Me started explaining, the suddenly, “wait, where the hell have you got this from?” (We have no tv, I monitor internet use closely)

DD “Oh well I was singing along to Hamilton and reading Call the Midwife”??!!!! 😂😂😂

When I told my son I used to go to discos when I was younger, he looked puzzled and said "But how did you have discos when everything was black and white?"

My then 6 or 7 DS asked me, why men become presidents and women become strippers when women are so much more smarter then men! I was afraid to ask him where he had come across these strippers!
