Kids say the darndest things

Post Reply New Topic

Santa Clause visted my daughter's school yesterday and gave her a "My Little Pony". She was besider herself with happiness. The first thing she did getting off the bus was run towards the garden shouting, "I need to play in the grass. I have a hungry herbavore!"

My son has taken forgiveness to a new level, whenever I make a mistake (for instance giving him hot chocolate that is, hot ) he says "It's okay Mum, I love you anyways."

This has to be the funniest thread I have read to date. I am going to need to ask my mom if I dispensed any nuggets of wisdom that were this hilarious when I was a small lad.

"A" dorable!! !!

I'm biracial but very dark. Once, when I was just a "depressed" teen waiting for my cloths at the laudromat, this cute little white girl (about 3 years old) asked me if I was chocolate covered. I laughed my head off. Then she said, "You're very different but I think you're beautiful, I like you...you're warm and nice and soft". (by this time she was on my lap and I was helpless, but a stranger just the same ). I cried all the way home because on that particularly disappointing day, I really needed some approval and everybody knows kids are painfully honest. She was the little "angel" that came to me in my time of need. I was glad her mom let me buy her a chocolate bar from the vending machine. That poor woman was "bright red" with embarrassment and kept on apologizing. She didn't have to because her child did me a great favor on that day. It's a memory I'll never forget. I used to look for them at the laudromat but never saw them again.

What a great story. Kids really can do the most wonderful things at just the right time.

I was about 12 or so and my dad took me to buy dinner at Subway. I told the girl behind the counter what I wanted and I though she said, "Do you want to eat it?" I replied innocently, "Of course I want to eat it." She laughed and said she asked if I wanted to heat it.

I think I was around 3 or four and one of my brother's girlfriends came over with a really deep sun tan. I asked her "Are you a black person?"

My brother brought his new girlfriend over to meet everyone. She's African American. My neice who was five or so at the time looked at her hands and asked, "Are your hands dirty?" My sister-in-law repied, "No sweetheart, I'm what you call black."

Omg; this post is hilarious.

While I have no official diagnosis, I was totally hyperlexic as a kid. When I was 3 my mom asked me to do something. I ignored her. She asked me again, I ignored her. She asked me one last time, completely exasperated to which I replied "I don't have to. It's a free country!" I later told her, after expressing concerns about not having "boobies" that I wanted her black bra when I grew up.

When my son was about two, I made a concerted effort to reduce my cursing (yeah, I have a truck driver's vocab). So I took to saying "Oh mommy" anytime I dropped something, bumped myself, etc. Yep, anytime he dropped something it was "Oh mommy!" A boo-boo was called an "I'm sorry" cause we always said "I'm sorry" in sympathy LOL

My son likes to tell my wife that he loves me a lot and likes me a little, while liking her a lot and loving her a little. We have no idea what this means.

My favorite, though - he got Lego Battles for DS for Christmas, and yesterday he looked at me and said, "I lost. My guy went to Lego Heaven to be with Lego Jesus."

Hahaha...my son used to say, "Boys have penises and girls have pajamas."

That is HILARIOUS! My son asked my wife's best friend, "If you've had the baby, why are you still fat?"

We had that one, too.

What in the world are you talking about? Asians are asian, not caucasian. It's down to skeletal bonework.

My son is in the fourth grade (mainstreamed). Another student said to him, "I'm going to kill you sometime today." My son reacted by just punching him in the nose. He got into SO much trouble! (blood everywhere) I had to go and pick him up at school. Now he's labeled as violent. But I say, what the heck gets into a person for them to say what that other boy said to my son. My son keeps to himself and never provokes anyone. But here's the catch. His teachers are struggling to get him to self-advocate. I think that was his way to do it. My son really shocked me! This was a first. I asked him why he lashed out like that. He said, "Mommy, that boy made me really mad because if he killed me, you's get really sick and would probably die like Buddy did." Buddy was a baby parrot who lost his mom to sickness. He got REALLY depressed and actually died on us. The whole family was upset for weeks because there was nothing we could do for him. It was AWFUL.

My 14 year old daughter got her first fish tank a year ago and has, of course, gone through many fish. The last time we aquired new fish from PetSmart, they "fish lady" told Amy that, as they sometimes don't know if the fish are male or female, we might take home pregnant fish. Amy was telling her friends that her new fish were going to have babies, and we explained that it was highly unlikely that they were all going to lay eggs at the same time. Lo and behold, several days later, Amy shreiked for me to come look in the fish tank...and what did I see but a whole cloud of tiny baby fish swimming around! The triumphant look on Amy's face spoke volumns, and I got taught a lesson in thinking I know everything

Well, Congradulations on the new births!! ! I love life situations like these...I was giggling with delight at this! So wonderful!! ! This will stay with you well into your old age.
