Funny things your kids said or did.
My son, age 4, has been watching me play CoH for a while now. When my wife asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up: A super hero!
She asked him if he was going to have a sidekick: A Beater Robot!
Mental Image: A bank robbery thwarted by a giant robot, wielding a 2x4 in one claw and a hose filled with ball bearings in the other. Robber begging to be taken in by the police to make the beating stop.
When my oldest daughter was learning her alphabet we passed a "no parking" sign. She had figured out the 'universal no' sign by then, so she blurted out, "No Pee-ing!"
I laughed, my wife laughed so hard she almost hit a tree.
Make a man a fire and keep him warm for the day, SET a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.

At a family dinner at my folk's place my then 4 year old daughter asked, while eating her bit of steak, "what kind of chicken is this?" because to her all meat was chicken. Also around that same age she did not want to try the scalloped potatoes I made for supper. After finally convincing her to try them she pipes up "How did you make them taste like tataoes?"
For a while it was fun to ask her what animal was black and white and stinky cause she'd answer "snunk" instead of skunk.
I had a cousin whose first word was 'hat.' Even after he'd learned to speak a bit more, he'd still refer to anybody wearing a hat as just Hat, including his father.
Having Vengeance and Fallout slotted for recharge means never having to say you're sorry.
Has anyone brought up steak yet?
There are no words for what this community, and the friends I have made here mean to me. Please know that I care for all of you, yes, even you. If you Twitter, I'm MrThan. If you're Unleashed, I'm dumps. I'll try and get registered on the Titan Forums as well. Peace, and thanks for the best nine years anyone could ever ask for.
My daughter used to say purkle for purple and puffets for puppets and froggies for perogies, and she eats perogies with ketchup (ew I know). So to this day we ask her if she wants froggies with ketchup.

A married couple that was friends had a young son, and they did the "kiss the booboos" thing for every minor cut, bruise, and scrape. Well, fast-forward a few months, and he was potty training.
One night, we're all together playing games, and their son goes to the bathroom all by himself. We hear a loud noise and a squeal. However he did it, he accidently dropped the seat on himself. He comes out crying and, naturally, expects his booboo to be kissed.
While mommy and daddy are mortified and trying to figure out what to do, the rest of us are laughing until we're crying. Daddy wins by recovering first. "Mommy's the one that kisses those."

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

When my son was younger, we taught him to carry his diapers (which he called "Diapohs") to the garbage can, which he also called "Diapoh". He then refered to a garbage truck as a "Daipoh Truck".

hope you cleaned up after
Seriously... I know it's nice for proud parents to witter on endlessly about their offspring as though they are the only human beings who ever went through any kind of development process but what the hell does this thread have to do with CoH?
Seriously we can't talk about video games but parenting is ok?

Scarlet, allow me to do both.*
My daughter is only going to be two at the end of this month but she can normally make her meaning clear by stringing two or three words together into a sentence. She's also aware of my gaming and occasionally comes into the study to watch me play. As she knows that whoever is on screen is who I'm controlling, any character I have up is 'Daddy' even if the character is female.
The first time she properly watched was a few months ago when she was watching me play my Fire/Fire Blaster in the middle of a Rikti invasion. Having seen a Fulcrum Shift go off, I dive deep into the mob and trigger Inferno. From beside me, a little, awe struck voice says, "Oooh, Daddy FIRE!"
I know that voice. And it's the voice of a future Fire Blaster.
The other incident happened only about a week ago. Recently we have been training her to shout should she need to attend to any toilet related activities as one does when beginning potty training. She's watching me chat to the team before entering a mission where I shall be lead Tank. As the loading screen clears, I toggle up my Holy Trinity of Rock Armour, Mud Pots and Rooted before charging into the crowd. Instantly my daughter starts shouting, "POO DADDY POO! POO POO POO DADDY!!!"
There then followed a few minutes of the worst Tanking imaginable as I try to gather aggro while crying with laughter and dealing with a squirming two year old who is all rather excited by the sight of my armour.
Since then, my Stone Tank is affectionately referred to as 'Poo Daddy'.
*And for what it's worth, I find the aforementioned rule silly too but hey ho.

I'm driving and my son (6 years old at the time) is in the back seat.
All of a sudden he says in an excited voice "Daddy! I saw a live squirrel jump from that tree onto the roof!"
Me, being the typical Daddy-wise-acre says "Yeah, cause dead squirrels don't jump do they?"
My son one-ups me: "No, they fall."
My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw
As the premature grumpy old man that I am, I have an extreme dislike of small children, to the point where my mother is one step away from punching me if I don't smile at my newphew's "silliness." I've given up trying to speak with my brother or his wife without it essentially becoming an exercise of watching his son... Be.
That said, I'm only 26, so I'm not yet grumpy enough to be yelling for you guys to get off my forums, so carry on.
Samuel_Tow is the only poster that makes me want to punch him in the head more often when I'm agreeing with him than when I'm disagreeing with him.

My 4 yr old seen me uploading my first MMA fight and I let him watch it. He says "DADDY!!! You killed a guy?"
Oh yea and when he was 1 yr old he also ate his own poop. It was so nasty all in his hands and hair. He was in his pack & play for a nap and when I went up there it was freakin nasty and he literally had a **** eating grin.

I don't know if this is the right spot for this, or if this is even in violation of the forum rules. I hope not. I believe I mentioned before that my daughter is 13 and today for some reason, (about an hour ago to be exact) it got me thinking of some funny things my daughter said when she was younger, right around 3 or 4 years of age. So I thought I would post a couple things she said that I will always remember despite her today denying she ever said such things.
First one was when she was 3 and I took her into a Fashion Bug with me and we were the only customers, hubby went to the nearest manly store (Home Depot, Lowes, I don't remember) and said see in few minutes. So I took her into the dressing room with me and while I was trying on clothes my darling daughter said really, really loud, MOMMY HAS BOOBIES, I HAVE BOOBIES TOO! I heard the clerks laughing so needless to say when I was done trying stuff on my face was red, and low and behold my husband came just in time to hear that too so he never let's me forget that I HAVE BOOBIES!
About a year later so my daughter is 4 when this happened, my hubby took her grocery shopping at Topps, (unfortunatly I wasn't there for this, but I did get to hear about it).
Topps had those little carts for children to push around, not many but probably 5 or 6 but my daughter loved those so when they were available she got one. Well they went shopping but not for alot of stuff so my hubby put it in her cart. They go to the register and he gets the groceries and puts them on the little belt and as the cashier is ringing them up she puts them in a regular cart, (note cashier is a female). My daughter sees this and quickly runs around to where she is at and says, EXCUSE ME MISTER, I ALREADY HAVE A CART!
Oh what memories. I be lucky if these days I get anything outta her that is not a sacarastic eyeroll, or an I hate you, but I always have those 2 things to remember that I do love her.
Please tell me some of your children stories, I would love to hear what funny things kids say or do.
