    My car is grey. My youngest calls it Daddy's gay car.

    She used to pronounce horse as whore. And a stable was a whore house.

    When my youngest was around 3 or 4 she would get popcorn mixed up and say cockporn!

    Scum instead of Millwall

    (seriously, best one was moathead instead of moped - still occasionally slips out now 15 years later)

    My youngest , nearly 5 at the time , was singing and pointing dribbling a football round the carpet indoors on the Monday after the 0-0 with our lovely neighbours chanting “you’re scun and you know you are, you’re scun and you know you are“

    Mummy was not impressed , unlike daddy who was soooo proud . I didn’t realise he’d listened that much but he’s mad for it and picks up all the songs

    Pushion. To this day I’m not convinced they know the difference between a pillow and a cushion (one is square and one is rectangle obvs)

    My daughter loved watching Big Cook Little Cook and many times you would hear her singing along to the theme tune

    My wife is worse than the kids. She can't pronounce 'Jeremy', it comes out more like 'Jeremininee'.

    My 6 year old struggled with the word Palace. He has always said ‘Scummy Croydon Ultra Wankers’. We always laugh, but we know what he means.

    Oh and my eldest used to have trouble with 'ship', so remember her once proudly telling my mother in law before they looked after her one night that she would 'bring her shit to play with in the bath'.

    My less than two year two year old Granddaughter learning to speak calls me "Daddy" I was mortified, as my Daughter said when I told her. "Welcome to the Island Dad" She said it while me and Mrs TCE were shopping in a full CO-OP and no one batted and eye lid. ;)

    When my daughter (now 20) was little and we were trying to get her to say 'please' when she wanted something, she did well, in fact a bit too well - when asked if she wanted some more peas with her Sunday roast, she paused to consider the question and then said 'errr no please'

    Love memories like that

    Actually that’s a lie, we always substitute naughty man into that chant.

    My eldest used to call binoculars Golars and still to this day can't say vinegar, it's vigener, she'll be 17 next month!
    my youngest used to grass her sister up by saying "Oh Dad, Lily said a square word!"

    Gross.

    My daughter ran into a playpark saying "can I go on the focking things" I knew she meant rocking things but i don't think other parents there were impressed.

    I have it on highest authority that @BR7_addick couldn’t say moustache as a kid and used to call it a matosher.

    When my wife was young she had trouble with the word beetroot. She used rootbeet, rootboot, bootreet.

    Still the same now bless her.

    And now at the ripe old age of 30, I still can’t grow one.

    I told our 3 year old she needs to wear sunscreen so she does not burn like a chicken. Now she tells everyone she is wearing it so she does not burst like a chicken.
