What are some embarrassing/funny things you (as a child) or your children have said unknowingly?

Once on a visit to charleston we were visiting the slave market building and my parents told me that I asked if we could “buy a slave”, they explained to me why that was wrong. I was four or five.

My daughter likes Tinkerbell. One of the movies on Netflix is Legend of the NeverBeast… which is decent.

But she calls it “The LoverBeast” and went over to friend’s house and kept insisting that Papa lets her watch “The LoverBeast”, they were mostly confused and wanted to clarify when I came to pick her up.

I’m pretty sure she’s trying to get me arrested, but I’m onto her.

My 4 year old calls Thor, Dork.
DORK! THE GOD OF THUNDER!!

When my son was 4 he was invited to a friend’s for dinner. About half an hour later the Mom called me. She said my son wouldn’t eat, and was acting like he was actually afraid of the food! I asked what they were having, and she said “Fish stix.” My son is not a picky eater and I knew he liked fish stix, so I asked to talk to him.
He said, “Mikey’s mom asked if I wanted retarded sauce with my fish stix, and I didn’t think I should eat that.”
I laughed so hard! I explained it and he just said, “Oh! OK!” and he ate it. So trusting they are.

I saw a seniors centre that was called the society of retired and semi-retired and I thought it was the society of retarded and semi-retarded. I asked how lots of seniors were retarded in one place. I was 12. I have eye glasses now. I also asked them how someone could be semi-retarded.

I’m sure I must have said something embarrassing in my childhood..But my parents never told me that..)

My son, as a very young talker, would loudly herald any sight of a fire truck, whether in real life or a photo or drawing of one.

It’s so fun to be in a crowded and quiet library and hear an adorable voice scream out, “FLYFUCK! LOOK FLYFUCK!”

My family once had a servant to help around. At the time I never thought of the word “servant” and thought she was just some kind of sister who acted as a helper. One day mom explained the word “servant” for me. Some time later my family decided to give her a spare room of our home as her room. They were announcing the decision to her and I was there. Upon hearing the decision I spoke out “She’s just a servant. Why does she deserve such a luxury?” Since then she became cross to me and I had no idea why until mom finally told me I was rude after she left my home.
