Next door neighbours son wanted to be a bin man, because they only work one day a week!

Or the time my son stood up in class and told the teacher that i had bought some handcuffs off ann summers!

A few years ago I had a neighbour / friend who often used to pop round to 'borrow' things, from teabags, to milk, to wash powder. The list was endless.
My (now ex) OH was forever moaning about her.

One day she came round for a cuppa, and my son, who was 5 at the time suddenly looked up from where he was playing and said ''you're a scrounger aren't you Angela'' then he looked straight at me and asked ''mummy what's a scrounger''?:eek:

Needless to say I was bright red and she made a quick exit, and never came back again.:rotfl:

I was in a lift in a shop with my 4 year old once and there was a black lady and her daughter also in there with us, my little girl asked in a big voice "why is the chocolate girl looking at me?". I was mortified but thankfully the other mum was lovely and we had a good laugh!

My 4.5 year old asked me if I died when I was in a car crash.

I was once asked the same thing by a teenager - who might have been expected to know better!

When my son was about 8 we were at a 'do', waiting for my BIL to arrive for his surprise birthday bash at a local pub. Suddenly everyone fell quiet, as often seems to happen in a room full of people. Into the silence my son's voice could be heard, after a trip to the loo, asking 'Mum, I understand about condoms but I don't know why anyone would want a scotch whisky flavour one...'

You might want to edit your post. I got a right ticking off for not keeping the board a nice place because I told the story of my daughter repeating something in all innocence that she had been told by one of her classmates.

On a lighter note, my DDs are nearly six years apart and, as the eldest's Dad's family were horrified and embarrassed by anything relating to being female, I'd always been very open about menstruation. Not in graphic detail, but a basic explanation of what happened, that you can feel tired and a bit achy and sometimes a little grumpy. Meant that the inevitable 'what are those?' in the supermarket didn't catch me unawares. DD2 was talked over, as she was small enough to be more interested in superheroes (although that hasn't really changed).


Picking her up from school, I was told that she and her two best mates, both boys, had been told off for looning around during playtime. When they went back into class, DD told her teacher that she needed to give Mr Deputy Head a chocolate biscuit from the packet the teacher thought none of the children knew about. 'Because Mr Deputy Head has got his period'.

God daughter was 6. We took her to Bulgaria on hol. She`s walking in front of us talking to my best friend, Oh, I`ve got asthma, hay fever, arthritis, piles. I said you haven't, she says I have. This went on for 5 mins then she said ask my mum. I don't need to ask mum and anyway the only thing you haven't got is hypochondria. Head swivvled whats that? She still want it now and she`s 23 in Nov.

I don't have any 5 year olds yet (which I am grateful for), but my father and stepmother have had more children, so there's a 15 year age gap. When they were 5, and I was a 20 year old with braces, one of them looks into my mouth and tells me:
"You have a necklace on your teeth!"

Another time one of them said something randomly in the car that we must of heard wrong, but both my sister and I could have sworn she said "They will die when they swim." When we asked her to repeat herself she gave a creepy little giggle.
Predictions, I guess!
