[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I use kiddo so strangers don’t know if girls or boys im very private. So today my kiddo was acting up but a drive around the lights made everything better. [/quote] Seems like “kid” would accomplish the same thing without being cutesy and gross.[/quote] It’s what my beloved grandmother called me and my siblings and it makes me happy. Sorry it’s so revolting! [/quote] OP here. I think it is the context that bothers me with our ES principal. It doesn't help that I generally view her as disingenuous and lacking transparency but when she refers to the children at the school as "kiddos" and her actions indicate she has no genuine affection for them, I feel like she has focus-grouped a word and decided it will serve her purposes. A beloved grandmother saying it is perfect, but not the principal.[/quote] Does your principal’s first name start with E and last name start with B?[/quote]
