I have no idea....

So we're sitting in the wife's minivan at the mall the other day and she asks my 3-1/2 year old son something in the backseat to which he responds, "I don't have no idea what you're talking about, bitch." Then while we sit there staring at him, he says it several more times to emphasize to Mom & Pops that he's learned a new word.

While hilarious now, this was not funny at the time but it did tell me three things:

1. My 3-1/2 year old's grammar is terrible.
2. I need to stop using my 00t phraseology around the house.
3. He's picking up inappropriate words outside the home since bitch is not a word I ever use.

Anyway, given the [censored] I get over my use of, "I have no idea what you're talking about, " I thought someone might find this humorous.

This is so [censored] funny!

I have young 2 kids of my own who on occasion talk smack. You have to punish them at that moment of course but afterwards it always makes me laugh.

Sounds like he'll be contributing to OOT in no time at all.

He actually had no idea what he said was even bad. It was just so innocent. You can't really punish him for learning new words. Hell, he even used it correctly. He just didn't know it was inappropriate.

Yes I know exactly what you mean. It's not really punishment, but you tell them not to use that word anymore.

"Because it is [censored] not a [censored] word you can [censored] use!"

Or something like that.

Are we talking about the shrimp girl's brother?? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

My niece and nephew cuss. Their parents think it's funny. I think it's annoying. Nip this in the bud.

When my son was about that age he got mad at me. So he is standing toe to toe with me, giving me a piece of his mind and while he is doing this he is wagging his finger in my face.

So I am trying not to laugh at him while he is voicing his concerns and all I can think is "damn thats annoying I have to stop doing that".

Kids are great.
