When my sister-in-law was picking up her grandchild from school, the kid bellowed across the playground at the top of her voice, "Nanny, Nanny I've got NITS!"
It was International Mens Day on Friday and my daughter's school invited male relatives/guardians in to participate in a lesson based on heroes and role models.
Part of it involved the kids interviewing us about our role models when we were young and who we look up to now and why.
when I was asked about my role model now, I said my wife as she looks after us, works hard and has a good career etc. My daughter piped up with "and she puts up with all your pops"
My three year old likes to encourage her old man. “You ate all your dinner... good job Daddy!”. Or if I’ve been doing some DIY “Did you tidy your tools away Daddy? Good job!”. The best one recently, was when I took to her to the toilet at the shopping mall and she loudly proclaimed, so everyone else in there could hear, “You didn’t get any on the seat... good job Daddy!”.
Currently no one is allowed to say stupid... “Don’t say stupid... it’s not a nice word... say silly instead”. She can be 3 rooms away and you can whisper it but she’ll still come tell you off.
The other day she was trying to tell me something but I couldn’t understand what she was trying to say. After about the 8th try she sighs, puts her hands on her hips and says “Daddy, please listen to my words... how many times do I have to say it?”
She’s asked for a baby brother for Christmas. I think she wants another idiot male in the house to boss around. She’s already got me and the dog firmly in line.
Threenager they call it. God knows what she’ll be like when she gets to puberty.
my youngest daughter is 3 and definitely rules the roost in our house, some of the stuff she comes out with is hilarious - she now has a baby brother to bully/mother, he's only 21 months and is just now beginning to tell her he doesn't want to do this and that.....it's hilarious to watch them sometimes, however the love between them with such a close age gap is amazing to see.
I think the best one I remember was my youngest son who was about nine and he'd just had sex education at school. We were sitting eating dinner and he asked my older son if he'd ever had a hard on. My wife and me just got up from the table and went to the kitchen so we could burst out laughing.

I'd start saving up for a man cave now if I were you mate.
My mum's not quite grasped the concept of what might and might not be appropriate TV for our 10 year old and she was watching EastEnders last night while my wife and I were upstairs. Our daughter came up after a while and asked what best sex ever meant.
My wife resisted the urge to say "I haven't got a f*****g clue".
Teaching our 2 year old granddaughter to identify items in the lounge. So we proceed with photos of the dogs and family members, through to fish tanks and varying ornaments finishing a large clock on the wall. So when mummy comes home to collect her she happily shows her what she has learnt today. Running around the lounge naming all the items to finally reaches the last one only to drop the L and shout COCK at the top of her voice. Oops, Grandads in trouble again.

Favourite was when their mum was teaching the niece (5ish) about sharing and charity and was saying
Mum: "You've got lots of toys but some children don't have any. Why don't you pick out one of yours and we can give it to someone less fortunate?"
Niece: "But they are my toys?"
Mum: "But they don't have any toys. What will they play with?"
Nephew (3ish) pipes up: "They can play hide and seek"
She'd had a bit of a day of it and when a couple of them just ignored her, she told them firmly to go in to her office and sit down.
One strolled in, sat down and said "nice comfy seats in here".
She said she was on the edge of either laughing or exploding.
I'd last 5 minutes in her job.

It's Ramsgate.
The only line I vaguely remember is 'above thy deeply piss-stained streets'.
He (my grandson) told me I was 27 earlier today.
"I can't make any promises."
She saw a news report of a student that drank himself to death last year and worries whenever we have a drink.
