Tilly Report post Posted May 8, 2006 Following on from another topic I thought it would be interesting to know what words are best not said. These are the current ones in our house:- MIDNIGHT - Something to do with the witching hour I think DUCKS - bird flu? FIRE SMOKE BURNING and of course the one thats been ongoing for years SCHOOL For me I don't allow the F word directed at me FAT Tilly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BuntyB Report post Posted May 8, 2006 My kids also don't like me to use the word 'school'. However, the words which cause the worst reaction are 'Right then...' in the evening. Apparently the kids have picked up on that it's always followed by 'it's time to get your pyjamas on'. I didn't notice until they started flinching as I started my sentence, lol!

smiley Report post Posted May 9, 2006 Know i shouldn't laugh - but they made me giggle! Our house it's ANYTHING 'wolly' or vague ie; In a minute.. (How many seconds is in a minute mummy...? I need a clock mummy, to count a minute... ) Maybe.. (Maybe what mummy...? If we do what mummy...? I need to know yes or no mummy..... ) Hang on a second (confuses the *ell out of him - he will grab whatever he's near...) How are you feeling? (i usually get a face similar to this..... ) It won't be long... (How long?? How many inches mummy...) I could go on and on..... Etc...etc....etc..... Gawd love him - he's gorgeous!

Gardenia Report post Posted December 29, 2006 In our house we don't mention SCALP (thankfully its not a word that comes up often, unless the eldest is tormenting him) CRYING GLOVES (he'll wear them but we have to call them handwarmers ) MUSEUM SCRAPE And I suppose theres lots of others but I'm sure I'll be reminded when I've uttered the wrong word. On the TV program After Thomas,Kyle hated the word Proud yet my boy loves that word and constantly asks us if we are proud of something he has done.

TheNeil Report post Posted December 29, 2006 'Work' 'Mother in law' 'Ricky Gervais' 'Party' Use of any of these usually results in a torrent of four word abuse. The GPs aren't very fond of 'in' (as in 'in your house'), 'no' (as in 'no, you can't have a green bean') and 'brush' (as they know this means being brushed) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loulou Report post Posted December 29, 2006 Hi , I definately can't say "in a minute" unless i am ACTUALLY going to be 60 seconds because Kai will start counting! Anything vague is just not worth saying. Other things that can't be mentioned without confusion/tantrums are: Bathtime Bedtime Haircut School Daddy (oops) Wipe your nose Bombs/war/fire/burgalars and "baddies" Loulou xxx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
