Like all children, my son knew not to say bad words.
Having had a heart condition from birth he missed out on a lot of socialization with other kids...no preschool....etc
When he started kindergarten, everything the other kids did shocked him. If there were tantrums...I heard about it. If the kids answered the teacher back ...I heard about it... If they got in trouble, I heard about it.... He got to be such a tattletale.
One day, after picking him up from school...he clearly was very excited
"Mom..Mom!! Danny said a BAD word...he said the B word!!!" (Danny was clearly his HERO)
He did?
"Yes, the B word mom, and he did not even get in trouble because the teacher did not hear him!" "Do you want to know what the word was?"
Sure
"Guess! "
Brat?
"Nope"
Bugger?
"No! .." THE B WORD, Ba..Ba.. B!"
Batty ?
Now he is disgusted that I am not "getting" it
" No mom!" "B...B...Ba...Ba....Ba "
BA?? Now I am curious....
Just tell me what the word is Joshua .......I can't guess...
"Ba...Ba...Ba... Ba-gIna!!!!!"
