So, my oldest child, who's now 25, was once 5yo. His brothers were each <1yo.
I let Oldest stay up late one night to watch Blazing Saddles. I thought he would enjoy the broader humor, like pretty much anything Mongo did.
I did warn him that there were certain bad words and that he shouldn't use them. He agreed. He even pointed out 'That's a bad word, daddy?' 'Yep.'
The next day, i dropped the kids off at Kindercare. Jacksonville was running an odd year-round school schedule experiment. Different schools closed for vacations at different times of the year. It worked out that Oldest was the only child of his age group that was no in school that day. So his class went off on the bus, he stayed and helped the teachers witih the other, younger classes.
So when i pull up that afternoon to take them home, the entire playground of four-year-olds ran up to the fence and shouted 'Where da white wimmin at?'
I couldn't kill Oldest right there on the spot because the director was apologizing to me about it, and not knowing who started it or WHERE they learned this, but she took full responsibility. I thanked her and ran...
