The thread about DC “wearing blankets”
reminded me of an incident about a year ago that really made me laugh (though I had to go into another room to do so in order not to upset DD!)

DS (who is younger than DD) has a tendency to bring his duvet downstairs with him at weekends and holidays and wrap himself in it on the sofa, watching TV and eating cereal from the packet.

One morning DD (older, neurodiverse, still wets the bed and wears DryNites) said to him “why are you wearing your duvet?”
DS retorted “well you’re wearing your toilet!”

I had to leave the room to stifle big snotty guffaws and my eyes were streaming with laughter.

I think it was the spontaneity of the reply that did it.

What things have your DC said to/ in front of you that have made you
laugh uncontrollably?

PS, yes, I did later remind DS not to be mean about DD’s night-time issues. He’s
NT and has never had such a problem.

We were in the car, stopped at a set of traffic lights. There was a "no right turn" sign at the lights (we are in uk). My DS, about 4 years old at the time, was sitting in the back seat and asked "Why is there a no boomerang sign there Mummy?" 😂
Took us a moment to understand, but they are forever "no boomerang" signs to us now.

Thought this might end up being a classic but it’s died a death!

Is there an existing (or old) “funny things your DC have said” thread?

Ds 6 years old and I were waiting in the queue at a deli counter when out of the blue and apropos nothing at all, he asked 'what exactly IS wanking, Mummy?'.
'Let's talk about this in the car, shall we?' I replied, eventually.

"Can you fix my slinky please?"
"No, I'm on the toilet."
"You've finished pooing though, I heard it plop and it stinks."

IS THERE NOTHING SACRED 🤣
