Mine learned to parrot "dough head", which I found I myself having to explain (to their mothers).
Funny thread.
My two little ones, almost 6 and just turned 3, have been, how should I say, experimenting lately...
It's hard not to laugh.
Especially when
they're laughing.
Short sidetrack, if no one minds.
(not directed specifically at you Mako. No offense if I've misread "mothers" (plural) as implication.)
Divorced couples should be very careful to not disparage, denigrate, etc, their x spouse in front of the kids, especially little ones.
No matter how strong their disagreements or disdain for one another, don't be eager to pass it on.
They'll learn to be sarcastic, cynical, hateful, and insulting fast enough as it is. They need to respect and appreciate and love both parents.
Taint that and you'll plant the seed of rebellion besides hasten the coming of the know-it-all stage.
No matter the circumstances parents should protect their children's innocence. It's going to be shattered and ripped away from them soon enough as it is.
THey grow up too fast. WAY too fast.
Avoid every possible future regret as best you can, even the little ones.
They add up.
