Cool piece of echolalia from DS

"Grandad! Five take away two, take away one, take away one is one"

My Dad: Shock

DS is four and a half. I have had no end of ignorance from the man and if he could be arsed he would know that DS' "abilities" are not what they seem. He has heard it at school - probably once, and he has remembered.

Then again my enjoyment was short-lived because when he got over the shock he told me to limit DS' computer time as he is, "far too good for his age". He probably envisages my son bringing about a hacking-related nuclear holocaust Hmm

Aww, lovely.

Better than 'Mummy's got a blow up doll' that an older sibling taught a friend's DS to say Shock

Shame it was short-lived.

That's brilliant.

Not at school, it wasn't Grin

Provided much amusement though.

WinterIsComing · 20/01/2012 21:08

I bet it did!

DS will only eat fried bread and a bit of egg from a Little Chef which is located on a major road but on a turn-off which is very countrified and always has suspiciously parked cars and condoms littering on it. So DH and I make jokes and forget he's taking everything in.

We sit down and he shouts, "I like this dogging cafe!" while young couple spit out their coffee and we sink back into our seats Blush

DD came home from school, and repeated a dialogue between a teacher telling another child off. it was "x if you do this, you will go back to foundation"

Grockle · 20/01/2012 21:43

Grin at dogging cafe. You have to be so careful!

WinterIsComing · 20/01/2012 21:52

Don't think Heston would be happy to hear his publicity project described as the "Dogging Cafe", no.

Piglet Grin did she threaten you with it? I can just imagine my son saying, "YOU are VERY naughty and will go back to FOUNDATION" because I won't let him wear swimming trunks in February or something.

Picked up DS (3.10) from preschool today, manager said when she asked ds to get his lunchbag, he said "No", when she asked why, he said "well, that would just be rediculous"... My fault, I said.

pigletmania · 22/01/2012 08:40

No she did'nt but I get repeated dialogues between her an the teachers as well, its like hearing a tape player Grin

auntevil · 22/01/2012 11:10

Had a similar experience with DS1. HE was mentoring a classmate in reading. Teacher was telling me about it at parent evening and she said 'He is just so bossy, he goes.....' and then did a verbatim parody of me telling DS1 what to/not to do when reading Blush . She even got the hand movements and facial expressions down to a tee Blush . Didn't own up though Grin

OctonautsOnRepeat · 22/01/2012 11:17

DS1 does this , "If you come downstairs again, I will be very cross" and "How rude!"

DS2 is NT but has a few good ones- the best at 2.10 is when he is really cross and trying to explain what we did that was so obviously wrong, if he doesn't get the reaction he wants:

"Look at ma face...(complete with theatrical pointing)...I am not happy"
From months of showing DS1 that emotions relate to facial expressions

signandsmile · 22/01/2012 17:04

yesterday ds came out of party (which went well Grin) and said, 'that was luvverly, shall we go home and have a nice cup of tea?" Grin

dontrememberme · 22/01/2012 17:23

not echolalia but ds1 (nt 12yrs) told ds2 to go & ask nanny what a MILF is. luckily my mum didnt have a clue & just said, oh i dont think thats a real word darling... while my teenage cousins were rolling around laughing.

FriggFRIGG · 22/01/2012 18:13

Blimey,I learn something new about my DD every time I pop on here.

We are waiting for the DX process to start,
and now I'm adding Echolalia (sp) to The List.

WinterIsComing · 22/01/2012 20:05

These are really cheering me up this evening, thank you Smile

OctonautsOnRepeat, your username makes me smile. DS watched NOTHING, but snippets of that programme for weeks: "MORE Octonauts; MORE Octonauts!" was his constant refrain. We had loads on the sky plus box but he would only watch the middle of each episode. I got blisters on the finger you use for the forward button and thought about drinking gin during the day Glad that obsession is over.

Actually I had to explain to the Ed Psych who was bemused to hear DS talking about albino humpbacked whales and vampire squid etcetera.

DD's favourite insult was "you SCURVY DOG!" ala kwazi for weeks,her pre school teachers were bemused.Grin

WinterIsComing · 22/01/2012 20:59

Grin she sounds great! I wonder what it is about Octonauts? It's a fairly entertaining programme but OMG the books! I wanted to scream every time I picked up the dreary things. They all went, um, missing over Christmas...

FriggFRIGG · 22/01/2012 21:04

Grin I had to read one three times tonight....the pictures are great,but the story's..... sheeesh!

peekabooby · 22/01/2012 22:27

DH asked dd (nt) to download, Insane in the membrane, ds (7) misheard so his echolalia was insane in the man brain.

The most surprising thing he has repeated was when he was five and playing chess. He said "surrender your king, defeat is imminent and I will defile your queen" I have no idea were he heard this but I was Shock and then some.

Sorry - unclear. That you had to read it even once let alone three times. I'd probably fall asleep myself.
