Ah, what a good laugh this has given me! After a visit from MIL, DD1 (aged 3) came out with 'oh bugger' complete with Grandma's northern accent. DH really enjoyed phoning his mum up to tell her than one...

My 5 year old DD has recently announced to me that 'URGH he has done a shit in his nappy' referring to DS!! How lovely, more embarassing though was at the weekend when i bought her some sweets while out shopping she asked me to unwrap them, i told her to do it herself and she screeched I CANT FUCKIN DO IT!!! I was mortified and bright red as an old couple shook their heads at me and walked off muttering to each other..

Kathyis6incheshigh · 12/02/2008 16:28

DD veers from talking like a strict teacher, which she must get from nursery ('Mummy, I've told you three times! Now SIT DOWN!') to sounding like she is telling folk tales ('Once upon a time there was a Mummy, and she was an old wife and she lived in a tree').

Worst thing she has ever got from me is 'I can't cope!' - said with a big grin on her face because she knows it makes me die of embarrassment.

When she was just two, we found my daughter sitting in front of her brothers' XBox shouting "Putain, putain, putain"

while putting her shoes on at about 2 getting in a muddle picked her shoe up threw it across hall saying for f*ck sake

I regularly get (in response to my requests)

"well, OK mummy, since you asked very nicely!"

Poledra · 12/02/2008 16:47

Oh, nearly forgot, there was the time when we were toilet-training dd1, and of course giving her lots of encouragement and praise when she succeeded. Well, she followed me into the toilet one day and, after I had done what I went there to do, said 'well done Mummy, what a clever girl! Now let's wipe your bottom'!

LOL legalalien.

I get an enthusiastic "Very good Mummy" and a round of applause when I manage to recognise numbers 1 to 9

"For goodness sake, look at the state of me" said by DD 2.5yrs when she spills stuff down her. And "sugar!" I'm just it was those two phrases she picked up rather than the worse ones that seem to slip out when I'm driving and sort of forget she's in the back.

babyinarms · 12/02/2008 21:03

Didnt think anything of it till we ended up following said woman into the surgery with dd shouting

"That man's a tosser isn't he Mummy?" (said loudly from back of car when we were almost forced off the road by White Van Man this morning)

CaptainUnderpants · 12/02/2008 21:30

I tend to call drivers who get my back up for whatever reason 'Doris '. or silly cow.

So I can be heard saying 'Come on Doris get a move on ..' but I can also here eldest DS saying it too , but sometimes before I have uttered a word

ChirpyGirl · 12/02/2008 22:24

Every time I change a nappy now DD1 says
'oh my god, dirty bum!'

legalalien · 12/02/2008 22:26

I also get "mummy, that's an excellent idea. kind of sad to be patronised by a 3 year old. Or is it "filicised" or something? pedants please advise.

The worst one for me has to be when I picked up the twins and their school friend who was coming for tea from school.

I was waiting at a junction when all of a sudden a car rolled straight into the back of my car. Although my blood was boiling, I thought "Act calm" as I didn't want to go mad infront of the kids or their friend.

Suddenly my 5 year old son (normally very sensible and anti any bad words) shouted "What a fucking idiot!!"

I said "Hey you mustn't say that" and he replied "But you always swear at bad drivers".

How shameful!

A friend who had very bad language, had his very cherubic 3yo dd sweetly say to the neighbour, what the f& does it look like we're doing.

(they were fixing her bike, and he asked what they were doing, like d'oh, isn't it obvious!)
