The use of 'You' in Sentences

...

Even with my kids. \"We shall make sure all our work is done before anyone turns on the the TV.\" \"Have we cleaned our hamster cages?\" \"Did we learn our spelling and tingxie?\" haha

Here's my report on my attempt at implementing Funz's advice with my Sec 2 son this morning.

CKS: So, have y... I mean... have we done our homework?
CKS Jr: <* Blank look and stare, like I had been talking alien to him. *>
CKS: Hallo... you heard me anot? Have we done our homework anot?
CKS Jr: Err... <* hesistate*> yuuh.
CKS: OK, so are we prepared for yo... I mean... our exam next week?
CKS Jr: Yuh.... <* pauses and continues *> daddy... you going to my school for exam next week arh?
CKS: :faint:

FAIL.

:rotflmao:

Think I have been speaking like that to kiddos for as long as they can remember they know what I am referring to when I use 'we'.

I must remember to try 'you'. Let me test it out. And see what kind of response I get from them.

3) are you expecting the cane

:rotflmao:

I can't possibly say 'are we expecting the cane?' :rotflmao:
With the kids, there is absolutely no need to be so tactful...if there is a need to use YOU, just use it.

They are the ones who have to sit for exams.
Homework belongs to them.
Caning is for them too.

I always ask them, 'do you want dinner?' Bcos I am hungry.

Few days ago I came across this:


A man: You smell good today.

The woman: :rant: I smelled bad all this while? Only today I smelled nice :spank:

:rotflmao:

How should we give a compliment when someone smelled nice???

YOU smell exceptionally good today.

:yikes: PERVERT! Why are you sniffing at me?!?!? :siam:

Unless the man is the hubby or boyfren. Then ok.

reminds me of a baby blues joke...

Harlequin:

\"Mmmm... Something is different with you today.... Mmm, did you changed your perfume/shampoo/body cream... ?......
:imanangel:

Her reply: \"....becos i just washed off the baby barf.....\"

WE are going swimming now. We are taking a break from all the revision.


WE have done 4 sets of math (2 each for DD and DS) 2 sets of English compo (DS), 2 sets of Science (DD) and baked a Japanese Cheesecake (me )

A well deserved break for US. :razz:

Later WE will be doing more revision.
