Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
Conversations with a 15 year old, who I have just supplied with a fruit snack.
Her: why do you keep bringing me fruit snacks ALL THE TIME*
Me: Well, fruit is good for you, make sure you get some vitamin C, keep you healthy
Her: I already take a multi vitamin every day, so what’s the point of all this fruit as well!
Me: (slight eye roll) well obviously it’s better to eat it naturally, fibre and...(slightly at a loss)...tell you what, look it up, it can be biology homework.
Her:(massive eye roll, massive sigh) never mind, just give me the fruit, you’re so embarrassing etc, etc.
*twice a day

I'm with Mini-Hobbes there, tbh.
A, as she was going to sleep last night, "Buppy* is very pleasing, isn't she, Mammy?"

BM: What swear words am I allowed to say?
Me: Granny and Pop don't like swearing, you might upset them. Tell you what, you can say the swear words Granny and Pop say.
BM: That's fine, I heard Granny say "shit" once

Naughty Granny!
At the opposite end of the scale, I was cooking tonight and the gas ran out. When I told A, she exclaimed, "Oh MAN!" I think she might be watching too much YouTube.

That's really cute.
A: "Daddy, me and Mammy are going to the beach on Saturday."
Me: "No, I said we'd go to the beach in summer."
"Yes, on Saturday, when it's summer. "
I wish it was summer on Saturday.

Ethan - "Chinese??? That's a dinner Mammy!

That’s a dinner
Elf has been watching a lot of The Simpsons. Today he was winding up Betty so she glared and stepped towards him. He put his hands up into a cross and shouted “the power of Christ compels you!”

It’s like a normal midlife crisis only with more chandeliers and foreign languages.

Re: Juvenile Jibber Jabber
We’re watching a film and Elf likes to point out every ‘bad’ word and reassure people he won’t repeat it. He also counts them.
Today, while watching Pacific Rim he’s decided to work out what they are too.
“Oops, that’s a bad word Mum. It’s the second one. Is that an adverb?”
The word was bloody.
