Big Bad 4 letter F word.
Today I was talking to my 8 year old granddaughter on the phone, and she picked such a bad time to call because I was working on my content. Trying so hard to listen to her and write was not going good at all. And out of my mouth I said I was going to FAIL. She stopped in mid sentence and informed me that was a bad word according to her teacher. She stated that whenever we are doing homework(which she calls what I'm doing) that we can never say that word and to practice saying we will get a A. She Made it so clear that Fail was a bad word. Needless to say to taught her grandma something new.
The amazing things that can come out of a child's mouth.

Yes children can say the most unexpected, and some times, also with the right timing. So do your homework :-)
Beautiful Lori, kids are so innocent and yes they say the most amazing things. Thanks for sharing :-)
Hi lori: Your grand daughter is so right. Words a very powerful; so much so: that what you think about ...comes about...Much better to stay positive. Of, you did have to end the conversation to better focus; just don't acknowledge the word...
Children basically are learning a lot of positive things in school. There are still good teachers out there. I have for grandchildren and they are all girls. The eldest is 10 and she is a performer in her dance class. I have learned a lot from her. She is 10 going on her early teens.
She is beautiful, I took tap, ballet, and jazz , from the age of seven til I was 13. I was even toe dancing my last year. Matter of fact I still have my toe shoes. I would probably break my ankle now, if I tried them on.
