lapal_fan Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 (edited) Didn't really want to join in this terrible thread, but I've just gone through some of my work notes and found the following message; "Dad you ar popeey pans and but fancks for hepin me fum jack xxxxxxx" Decoded and written in PROPER English is; "Dad, you are a poopy pants and but thanks for helping me, from Jack" Couple of things here to digest.. One, the TERRIBLE spelling and grammar - truly only seen in state school education.. This is unacceptable and very upsetting, I've obviously got a dumbass kid. Two; Jack is 2 and cannot hold a pen properly, let alone phonetically spell words (POORLY!). Meaning, this must actually be the doing of my eldest son, who is 6.. And lastly, Three; How the hell did/does he know I got poopy pants? Needless to say, I'll be ringing the school to have words about the state of his English, I'll be booking in some extra tuition and I think it's high time I changed my pants. Poopy pants indeed!

The thread name however seems a bit full of itself. Surely “Kids say the funniest things” would have been better?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely “Kids say the funniest things” would have been better?! Thanks for saying you like the thread. The name seems a bit of a weird thing to get upset about (seen a few things like that on here recently) but sorry if it upsets you. I struggled to think of what to call it and that's a well known phrase as that's all I could think of at the time. You're suggestion makes me think of Bill Cosby because of that show he hosted but if any of the Mods want to change the name that's fine by me.

Haha I wouldn’t say I’m upset about it It’s just one of those phrases I’ve never been fond of, I don’t know why, I think it seems a bit lah de dah.

It's a nice thread x No worries, I'm really not fussed by names that much and it was the first thing that seemed to fit. Two people saying they weren't keen isn't going to upset me (now if there were 3 of you I'd be going full Harry Potter and crying in the cupboard under the stairs). I'll agree the babes bit is a bit odd from that phrase... Oh balls, I guess maybe I don't like the name.. Off to the cupboard I go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichfield Dean Posted July 9, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 9, 2021 In the car earlier and Vindaloo came on. We were singing, "We will score one more than you" and my two and a half year old daughter said, "I can't score a goal I don't have my Aston Villa clothes on." And then she proceeded to get upset. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted July 9, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted July 9, 2021 The six year old granddaughter announced that she has three 'true loves' at school, but they don't know about each other. I see trouble ahead. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted November 23, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted November 23, 2021 The 4 year old was playing with his toy tool set telling us about all the things he'll do at school today. He then moved on to the subject of after school club. At this point he picked up a large black screw, thrust it towards us and announced "I'm going to screw all the ladies at club". My wife's now trying to figure out how to ensure he doesn't repeat this at school. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rds1983 Posted January 4, 2022 Author VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2022 The lad just told my wife that when she has 2 more birthdays she'll be 40 and that's a really big number. He also told her this morning that she had a big soft bottom. Times like this I'm glad she's his favourite and he mostly ignores me. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Follyfoot Posted January 4, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) Centre parks years ago in the communal swimming pool changing room my youngest son said to the Mrs at the top of his voice “Mum, where is your winky, the Mrs said in hushed tones, “I don’t have a winky” to which he shouted back ,”yes but you have got fur” Cue heavy laughter from the next cubicle and the Mrs going ten to the dozen to get out of the place quickly unnoticed Edited January 4, 2022 by Follyfoot 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
