As we were walking to the station, DH's elderly grandfather commented 'slag' and rolled his eyes as a teenage girl in a skirt walked past. I had to do a double take.
I said 'what?' but he said nothing and I didn't further question it.
I was really shocked at the time as no one in my family would say this or anything close. It's been on my mind and I feel really cross.
He is, I suppose from a different time and background. Which DH sees as an excuse, not sure I do.
I work weekends and my DH takes my young DD (4yo) to visit great-grandfather every other week. I am now worried about this.
She has come out with a few odd / derogatory things that no one should say and I had no idea how she heard it. One of the things was 'simple' when talking about a person in our family with disabilities. I had not connected that it could have been something she'd picked up from him. I'm sure she didn't get it from Cbebies.
AIBU for wanting to stop DH taking DD to see his grandfather. I feel really weird about this type of language and that someone would even think it let alone say it.
