Kids say the darnest things...

My DD1 related this to me yesterday. They were not allowed to use Chinese during lessons other than Chinese. During a non-Chinese lesson, she noticed that something was crooked so she said to her friend, \"Why is it 歪歪(wai1wai1)?\", and immediately her friend replied, \"Orrrhhh, you use Chinese!!\" Guess what she said? \"No lah! I said 'Why? Why?', W-H-Y, W-H-Y!\" :roll: ....

Sometimes, she is too smart for her own good. Luckily, sashimi and I are still ahead of her but I do wonder what kinds of rubbish DD1 will fill DD2’s head with in the years to come. Sigh…

The problem is that DD1 is almost 8 years older than DD2 who will no doubt look up to her Jie-jie. I just hope Jie-jie will not exploit it.schellen:

Luckily 8 yrs then cannot follow cause the elder one will always be too much ahead.... but the real shocker will be when ur DD2 is 4-5 yrs old hehehhe
But what if elder one decides to \"impart nonsense\" to the younger one as fact, and the younger one believes it since she adores her Jie'jie? That's what I'm afraid of. (Too bad I didn't exploit this privilege with my sis who's 6 years my junior.

most terror twos are …
they are more cranky since they could not express themselves well enough to be understood. And they know they can get their way by throwing tantrum. -
DD2 and I were doing some assessments couple of days ago.
We came upon this sentence in her cloze passage... and she
sorta struggled with it... much to my frustration. :frustrated:
\"I have received a good pen from my brothers and sisters.
My uncles and aunts have presented me _______ storybooks,
socks and shoes, chocolates, cakes and stationery items.\"
So, I was like trying all sorts of ways to explain to her so that
she could understand/get it, but it seemed futile cos in one
of my \"trying\" to explain, here's what happened... :roll:
Just like when you are receiving a trophy during your sports day
in Kindergarten, the Principal presented you with something rite.. :evil:
(obvious clue) :roll:... so in this sentence, the same applies.
He was given story books and etc etc for his birthday. Hence,
he was presented........ (me pausing for the longest time....) :roll:
Come on... you know this! What do you say/use when something
is presented to you...?
\"Errr... hmm... i know... say Thank You.\"
:frustrated: Aaaarrggh! :frustrated:
Eventually, i gave her 4 choice words and she got it right. To which
she said, \"Hey, you actually gave me the clue just now when you
were explaining it to me, right Mummy? I remember now..\" :stupid:
I realised i led her to say that from how i phrased my so called
\"explanation\"... so it's kinda my fault too. :oops: -
tankee:
Agree. Terror twos.most terror twos are ...
they are more cranky since they could not express themselves well enough to be understood. And they know they can get their way by throwing tantrum.
Will cry very loud when saying no to his request.
