I'm back baby!
Just told a quick story in the office about my young un the other day. I'm not discouraging this kind of thinking :D

Discussion during dinosaur documentary (paraphrased):

Little un: Whats a carnivore daddy?
Daddy Gilly: Its an animal that only eats meat.
Little un: Like that big T Rex?
Daddy Gilly: Yep, just like that.
Little un: I eat meat too, am I one?
Daddy Gilly: No, you're an omnivore, we can eat anything
Little un: So why do you tell me off for eating my jumper?

He says lots of other funny stuff but this one stuck in the mind. Not bad reasoning for a 6 year old.

You must be used to that level of reasoning from spending so much time on GD...:o

Maybe your little one is a member?

I wonder, which member fits the profile of a 6 year old here...?
 
I once pointed out a woman to my young sister-in-law because she had a funny hat on. SIL looked up briefly, said 'FAT' really loudly and then went back to her colouring book.

About 85% of them!

Very good reasoning there! I bet he'll learn from this and test you even more in the future!!

Good Luck! :D
 
Kids = awesome

Some of the stuff Gem tell's me when she gets back to work, amazes me, they can be so witty sometimes.

One day she came back and we had a chuckle about a particularly cunning child, she told him off for jumping up and down on the sofa saying "we don't stand on the sofa do we", so the kid then went off, found a tray of some description, put the tray on the sofa and stood on top of it, Gem then said again "we don't stand on the sofa do we?!" and the kid replies "But I'm not stood on the sofa, I'm on the tray".
 
When my boy was 5 years old, he and his friend David were walking together to school with myself and various other parents when they came across a dead cat in the bushes ahead.

David is saying that the Cat is asleep, and that his Mum told him that sometimes people and animals go to sleep for a long time to visit God. My boy went on to explain that the Cat was in fact dead and dead people and animals do not go to sleep for a long time they are just dead.

David disagreed, so my boy said that sleeping people and animals always wake up when it is daytime, dead people and animals don't.

David is poking the Cat by now and my son says "you shouldn't do that David", David asks "why? I'm seeing if he wakes up" to which my son replied " If he wakes up we better run, because it would be a Zombie Cat and it would eat our brains."

I cracked up, much to the chagrin to all the other Parents.

You educated him well, I hate parents who say that people just go to sleep for a very long time, it's not fair on the child.
 
Brilliant!!!

I can't wait for my sis's baby Oliver to grow up :D

Gilly... That was truly brilliant, made my lunch :D

ags
 
yes they are good with the imagination some of the stuff my boys come up with never ceases to amaze me and make me laugh.

i love the reasoning of children, its almost ignorant but at the same time so playful and logic. Sort of a shame that we lose it when we grow up

You don't have to :

Me : *FAAARRRRTTTRUMBEEELOOWWWSCUPWINNER!!11*

Me : *lol* "What?"
Girl : "Say you're sorry!"
Me : "You're sorry."
Girl : "No, "I'm sorry"
Me : "Really? Why, it was me who farted"
 
After seeing me use a urinal for the first time, in a pub toilets, my boy went out to our table and loudly said 'mummy, daddy just wee'd in the sink'!
Thanks Jake! Lol
 
lol i was in a supermarket recently and a toddler/kid started screaming for his mum and shouting "help a giant!!!" Running away from me, tee hee.

lol Castiel i love your kid explaining the dead cat, that is brilliant.
 
Some from my littleuns:

*Random question from my boy:
"Daddy can you do me a flavour?" < meant favour



* Playing "ask Daddy a question" before bed - it can be anything. My boy starts asking me about heaven, death and things that he worries about. He's getting very tired and after we have gone through a few questions with my daughter as well who is also sitting in bed with us, I switch back to my boy and ask him if he has any other questions. He yawns...sighs...pauses..then says:
"Yes Dad, when are we going to stop doing this game?"



* My 5 yr old lad at breakfast this morn:
"Dad can i have chicken nuggets?"
"Don't you mean Golden Nuggets?"
"No, I want breakfast not dinner stupid"

(confusing chicken and golden nuggets)




They come out with all sorts of classics all the time, and we always forget to write them down.
 
My daughter loves music and when it came out she loved californication by the red hot chili peppers, unfortunately when walking her to school she decided to sing it but unfortunately she got it slightly wrong by singing "Dream of fornication ......." i laughed the other parents on the way to school didn't.
