Listen to your kids!!!!!!!

[Mac Romans]

Not car related but this actually happened to me today and those of your who met my son will find this extra funny as Youve what a cheeky little sod he can be!

What follows is a verbatim transcript of conversation I had with my 6 year old son, and I think there's a lesson to be learned by all of us:

Lewis (returning from the toilet in the middle of the day wearing just his pants and holding a small plastic toy:

"Daddy, I've got something to ask you"

Me: "what are you doing? Where are your clothes?"

Lewis: "in the bathroom, but"

Me: "But nothing....I'm not listening to you until you have some clothes on...and give me that (snatching small toy from his hand)"

Lewis: "But daddy"

Me: "CLOTHES....NOW!"

Lewis: "it's important..."

Me: "NOW!!!....."

5 mins later and he returns dressed and I'm still holding the toy ready to give it back....

Me: "Now, what did you want to ask son?"

Lewis: "well....I was having a pooh and dropped that in (points to toy in my sweaty hand)....and I wanted to know if it has to be thrown away?"

Me: "............erm.........."(drops somewhat soiled toy).

Folks, when your kid says something is important, it might be!

Brilliant Mac, let's try and keep this thread running, hears a couple from me; 1. My daughter. 2. Her daughter.
Daughter, dressed ready for the Girl Guides," dad how do I look" me. " your shoes are still dirty" "well I've tried my hardest". "Go back and this time try a little elbow grease" " dad I can't find the elbow grease any where"
Granddaughter; " Grandad why can't I catch the ball like you". " well my little angel it's all about hand and eye coordination, you must keep your eye on the ball". She then put the ball against her eye and said " but grandad I can't see now"
Rha, Roy.

Was watching a film on TV and a battle was about to start. Someone shouted "Shoot at will" and our youngest said "which one is Will"

I always remember a tale my Mum tells about my brother when he was a kid and before I was even born which goes something like this.

In January 1965 Sir Winstan Churchhill was taken gravely ill and the whole nation was glued to their radio's listening to the constant bulletins on his condition until the time came on the 24th when iit was announced in yet another bulletin that the great man had passed away. As with most people of that time my Mum was quite upset and upon seeing this and listening to all the radio announcements my brother who obviously didn't quite comprehend the situation suddenly turned around and said;

"I am not surprised he is dead the amount of bullets in him"

As you can imagine this did lighten up what was otherwise quite a somber moment.

The boy redeemed himself today. Going to a kids 'super hero' themed party and as I picked the kids up from their grandparents house I heard the boy say to his granddad:

"I don't know what superheroes the others will be dressed as....how many do you think will be dressed as my daddy?"

All'a forgiven son!

Well here's mine then. When my son was I suppose 3 or 4 we used to tell him that all his poohs went to a small town called Ollerton just down the road from where we lived.
We were getting ready to go to McDonald's at Ollerton (now a regular meet point for zeds) and Jack came trundling in in his wellies. I asked "why are you wearing your wellies Jack?"
Answer...because we're going to Ollerton and I don't want to walk in the Pooh!
Ignorance is bliss!
