“I have a baby-daddy.”

Chicklet, you are four years old, so I really hope that’s not true.


I suppose I could almost make a category called “kids say the darndest things,” but that’d just be ripping off Bill Cosby. True, I could be more honest with the title than Cos ever was.

“Kids say some fucked up shit!”

See? That’s got a much better ring to it. Anyways, on to the latest bit of KSSFUS.

In one of my classes we’re covering family members – daddy, mommy, brother sister, baby brother and baby sister. The kids have a tendency to identify any male as “daddy” no matter how old the person pictured looks. Okay, I get that. It’s the one English word for a male that most of them already know. But it does lead to some odd bits of English.

Like the title of this entry.

When a four year-old girl told me she had a baby daddy, I just about died laughing. She didn’t get the joke she’d inadvertantly made – and I wasn’t about to try and explain it to her.

Still, it was funny. ^.^
