HonaloochieB Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 On seeing his little friend's effort at Lego, my bricklaying friend's two and a half year old son Lionel asked "Who done that then"? He even tried to look incredulous and my mate swears his fingers were miming building a roll up.You can't buy moments like that.

OliviaDee Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 you really can't. i'm so annoyed i didn't write them down as they came - you think you'll always remember - but i can barely remember what happened yesterday.a friend of mine whose mother died was really torn about whether or not to bring her 6 year old daughter Sam to Granny's funeral. finally she decided she would, and would try and talk her through it, the realities of life etc... etc...When the coffin was carried into the church Sam asked what it was and was told 'That's (sympathetic tones) called a coffin. That's where Granny's body is.' Sam duly started roaring crying, escalated wailing 'But- but- but!' and had to be taken out - everybody watching them down the aisle till Sam finally got the rest of her sentence out 'But Mummy where's her head then?!'

KidKruger Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 When I was santa at school a couple of years ago, a conversation with a 9 year old girl.Santa, "Come and sit here - what's your name ?".Girl, "Tabitha".Santa, "Here's a surprise present you can open later. What else would you like for Christmas".Girl, "A new brain".Santa, "Interesting, why would you like a new brain for Chrismas ?!".Girl, "Because I'm useless in school and my parents get embarassed 'cause I'm so stupid".

OliviaDee Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 she doesn't need a new brain. she needs new parents. so did you oblige santa? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/11945-things-the-kids-say/#findComment-335420 Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidKruger Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I was totally stunned by what she said and asked her what she was good at, suggesting maybe she could concentrate on the things that interest HER the most so she can be happy at doing well with those..But no, I failed to get her new parents, the sack of presents was pretty much full of only party bags, no adoptive parents in there that I could see !

randombloke Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Sat in his car seat at the age of about 2 and 1/2, with me in the back, his mum driving and my mother sat in the front seat my son noted that we'd just been cut up by another car. He piped up, "Is he a w@nker too mummy, like the man you shouted at yesterday?" Having lived all his life in Wakefield, West Yorkshire at the age of 4 he tried to converse with an American child at Disneyland Florida. Said child was wearing a baseball cap and dungarees, was chronically obese scoffing a huge burger and the offspring of what can only be described as God fearin' southern folk who believed in truth justice and the American way as administered by large hand guns. Several attempts to engage with the child failed. To which he loudly announced "Dad, this kid is stupid as well as fat and ugly."Tha' can allus tell a Yorkshireman, but tha' cannot tell 'im much.

katie1997 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 me - 17 years old, standing in front of bathroom mirror at my mum's house, plastering on a ridiculous amount of make-up. Foundation first.brother - 5 yrs old, watching intently...then he innocently asks why I am putting on 'new skin'. A *little* bit older now and I am thinking 'if only it were that easy' ;)PS. I persuaded him that my lip gloss was just colourless lip balm. You gotta get your own back, right? I remind him of it regularly.
