[quote=Anonymous]When I was a teenager I did a lot of babysitting. One of the kids I sat for was adopted from Russia a little after 2 so he came over here doing toddler babbling in Russian. It took him awhile to start to talk in English but when he did, he started calling me Mommy. We figured it was because he associated the word "Mommy" with a female who took care of him and who was safe to him. It upset his mother but thrilled me.[/quote]
