My 3.5 y/o son is abusing the bathroom amnesty on potty talk

@soulserena Might have a lawyer on your hands, in 20 years or so

@soulserena He is wise beyond his years. Little, lovely punk!

@kellie89 Sounds like he got played by his 3.5yo son.

@soulserena I mean we as adults still find farts funny. Just gotta teach em when it’s appropriate. It’s an ongoing process that you’ll just have to endure.

 

[soulserena]

@apparition Farts are fair game and not included in potty talk, mainly we’re trying to curb the eating po-po and pee-pee jokes and stories (especially during dinner!)

 

[apparition]

@soulserena My kids say that all the time. They’ll grow out of it

@soulserena Wife instituted a "That is a bathroom word" with our son. He does really well at not saying words like poop, poopy, fart, etc. until he is in the restroom, then it is just a string of "bathroom" words that have no real meaning.

A couple weeks ago he goes to the restroom, and then yells for me. I figure he needed help with wiping. Nope...he yelled "Poopy poop fart!" followed by a sigh, "That feels better." and walks out. Guess he had some feelings to get out.

 

[soulserena]

@araria Haha. Ah, relief!

 

[jedward]

@araria I'm reading this on the toilet, so by Kid Law I am pleased to say: "Poopy poop fart!"

edit: I do feel better!

 

[lauraconnell]

@araria Honestly that sounds like me after a long day of meetings. How was your day? Poopy poop fart, and no I don't want to elaborate.

 

[araria]

@lauraconnell Long day of meetings that could have been emails?

Exactly the right kind of response to those.

@araria Adorable

@jetson He had me there, I had to admit it.

@soulserena My girls are 5 and 7… it’s still all pee and poop jokes. It’s pinnacle of humor under 10.

@whiteangel03 It's pinnacle of humor under 10

 

[katrina2017]

@soulserena I’m 33 and poop and farts are still funny.

 

[raisingbishops]

@soulserena We also have this rule, but do bend it a bit.

If you ever need to bring out the big guns thermonuclear bomb to cheer up your kid, try "Alexa, play Jingle Farts by Fart Man"

 

[soultrapped]

@raisingbishops My kids love horsey fart race and farts in my butt.

It really helped our oldest get over poop shame and honestly it's just some good hearted fun when we mess around.

@soultrapped My parents got us the book everybody poops
