| Teach your kids the proper names for sexual organs and parts. It could save their life! Normalize the terminology of penis, vagina, etc. |

I can't stand when I hear adults saying yo bro or dude when telling someone something. bro did you hear or xxx or dude that shitvis crazy.
My 11 year old grandson uses bro and dude and I don't care but hearing an adult say it makes me shudder. |
Tummy not belly! "Yummy, yummy. Yummy. I got love in my tummy," is when you're eating that cookie! |
THIS? YOu bumped a zombie thread for this? Everyone already knows this. Thanks Captain Obvious. |
Belly of the beast: it's a common term in kindergarten. |

Is it childish or mature to say "Hey, I need a bathroom quick, I'm prairie dogging!" |
No they don't. I'm a 3rd grade teacher and most kids use household nicknames instead. I had a student who didn't even know the term was vagina. She thought it was called fine china. Not even joking. Calling it the fine china was something an older sibling had said as a toddler and the name stuck in their household. |

I have a relative who has taught her young children to say kaka for poop. I find it very cringey. I think poop is an acceptable term for people of all ages, not too vulgar and not to childish.
I am somewhat lost on what children should call girl privates, vagina is usually not accurate at all especially since most little girls don't even know they have one and probably shouldn't be exploring it either. |
My son says caca for poop because that’s the word in Spanish. Sorry you find our language cringey. |
Me and my friends say all of these - there’s nothing childish about any of these words. |
| My three-year-old called me a "yellow-bellied, lily-livered coward," and I told him that with juvenile language like that, he'd never matriculate at Harvard. |
Maybe if my relative were Spanish in any way I wouldn't find it cringey. If that's the only Spanish word those kids know I think it's a bit odd. |
Also, "in the stomach of the beast" just sounds gross, and there's no internal rhyme. See, also, "stomach flop." |
