Wife, to 4-yo daughter: "Remember, if you don't cooperate you won't get a cookie."
Daughter pauses briefly. "Oh, OK. I will stop wanting one then."

We flew home today with our 6-year-old. After walking through the metal detector, she asked what it was for. The agent replied that it was to check for metal because it could be dangerous on the plane.

"Oh. Why just metal, what about bombs and matches?"

My daughter at 5, arguing that she should have some cake instead of more of her dinner:

"Maybe my sugar pressure is all the way down! My tummy is saying, 'No more real food, we need some candy to get the sugar pressure up!' "

Three year old is in the other room right now, by himself, singing a song:

"Butt, and butt, and buttandbuttandbutt and stupiiiiiiid!
Butt, butt, butt, butt, stupid, stupid, stupid, buuuuuuuuutttt!"

Settle down, Beavis.

Today my kid explained potential energy to me while we biked up a hill, which was super cool. Right up until she said it was like when she wants to play games with me and it built up all this potential fun until we got to finally play because I wasn't too tired (I've been sick for a while). Like going up a bunch of big hills and then down a small one. :smith:

My sister got married, and my 6-yo made a little card for her. Edited for spelling, it read:

He is the groom
You're a great couple

The neighbour kid came over the other day while my daughter was in the middle of some elaborate fort-and-drawing exercise. To catch her friend up, my kid explained who all the stuffed animals and figurines were.

"...and he is my boyfriend and sometimes nemesis."

I was nervous before, but at 7 it sounds like she has dating pretty much figured out.

My 7yo daughter and I discovered Lip Sync Battles the other day, and we were working our way through a playlist of them on YouTube. Halfway through an episode someone does "I Just Had Sex", and by the time I realized what was going on we were already a verse into the song so I figured I'd let it ride.

After it was over, she asked me "what does "just had sex" mean?", and I started to explain that it was something that adults did together because they loved each other, and...

"Oh!" *makes the universal hand gesture for intercourse*

I thought that had settled it, but I got a text from her mom today that she won't shut up about it, so I guess I have some "that's not a polite thing to talk about" conversation in my future.

(I assume she learned it on the street like everyone else.)

Probably, but even when it is it's supposed to be at home. Bars, restaurants etc. still can't serve minors.

In 11 states they can with parental presence and consent, per this page. Only in 4 states can minors drink as part of an undercover police assignment, though.
