Get Me A Juice Box Biatch!
Every night before bed my 6 year old son and I have a lengthy conversation that usually involves wild ideas on his part (like the one below). I love this one on one time with him where he can tell me all about his day, how he's feeling, or about all those things going on inside his brain. Some nights these conversations go on and on and I feel like I'm never going to get him to sleep but sooner rather than later he drifts off into dreamland. This nightly ritual is so important to me because I know as Future Bam gets older it will allow him to feel like he can come to me and talk to me about anything that is going on in his life.
One evening this week as Future Bam and I were getting ready for bed, he asked me what I wanted for Christmas. Before I could answer he turned to me and said, "I know what I want to get you". He went on to tell me that he wanted us to get real robots from Santa so that the robots could do all my work and all his chores while we played. It wasn't such a bad idea. It still isn't such a bad idea :)
After he got through all the excitement of what he wanted our robots to do he asked me what I wanted to name my robot. In an effort to make him laugh like I usually do, I said, "Booger butt". Then he said, "I'm going to name mine biatch!".
Trying to mask my laughter with disappointment, I said, "Where did you hear that? Do you know that's a 'bad' word?".
Being the super sensitive child that he is, he immediately began bawling and said that he didn't know it was a bad word because the little boy on the movie Zathura said it. I immediately remembered the line from the movie and couldn't help but laugh out loud. You can see the clip from the movie here .
After I laughed and got him to smile, I told him he shouldn't say it again simply because it's not nice. End of story...
I think Leslie explained it better and with much more humor that I ever could so go on over and read what she had to say about her recent experience here.
What did you do when your child said their first bad word? Laugh? Cry? Get angry? disappointed? Worse (surely not)?Labels: kids and bad words

Great Blog
I think your boy is on to something with the robot. I think I want one for Christmas!
At least Future Bam didn't realize he was saying a bad word. He's such a good kid. It's so sweet that he didn't want to disappoint you. And between just you and me, I think "Biatch" is a great name for a robot.
(And thanks for the linky love!)
