The Little Boy Was Told To Use Adult Words For Things And His Father Was Shocked

A man is driving his five-year-old son to school for his first day.

Suddenly the boy shouts out,

“Daddy! Daddy! Look at those moo moo cows in that field.”

His father says, “Hang on, you’re a big boy now, you must use adult names. It’s a cow, not a moo moo cow.”

The boy is quiet for a while then suddenly shouts out,

“Daddy! Daddy! Look at those baah baah lambs in that field.”

“I’ve told you” the father replies.

“You’re a big boy now, you must use the adult names. It’s a lamb not a baah baah lamb.”

He drops the boy off at school and returns later to take him home.

“How did your first day go, son?” he asked.

“What did you do?”

“We did some sums and we all read a story,” he replied.

“Oh,” said his father.

“What was the story called?”

The little boy puffed his chest out and replied proudly,

“Winnie the Shit!”
