Baby Talk To Make You Balk
(My neighbors have gone out for the day, and have asked me to babysit their youngest daughter, who is about two years old. I bring her to the mall so we can do a little shopping. I have her strapped into her stroller, and am pushing her around through the clothes racks. As I pause to look at some tops, a rather large customer walks past a rack, and knocks off some of the merchandise. She bends over to pick up the clothes.)
Two-Year-Old: “D***! That lady got a fat a**!”
(The customer rounds on me with a death glare.)
Customer: “What did you just say?!”
(I point at the two-year-old girl, completely mortified.)
Me: “I am so sorry! That was her!”
(The customer opens her mouth to berate me when the two-year-old girl pipes up again.)
Two-Year-Old: “D***! What a fat b****!”
(The customer stares at the little girl in shock before glaring at me again.)
Me: “She’s not mine! I’m just babysitting!” *to the child* “You shouldn’t say things like that! It’s very mean, and rude! Who taught you that anyways?!”
Two-Year-Old: “Big sister! Now buy me candy, b****!”
(I quickly wheeled her away under the glaring gaze of the customer. I didn’t babysit her ever again!)
