I have this cousin all grown up now... When he was 4years old, he totally stumped his mum... totally lost for words... The story: The family owns 2 cars... A white and a Blue car... there was this incident when his mum was driving the blue car... the mum had to jam her brakes to prevent beating a red light... this caused the 2 kids at the back seat to have a minor fall... and so one day, there was this conversation... mum: Come, lets' go for a car-ride... cousin: are you driving? mum: yes... cousin: taking wat car? mum: blue car... cousin: i don't want to sit blue car... mum: why don't want to sit blue car? cousin: blue car - red light - fall down... mum: ............. *totally stumped* bear in mind my cousin was only 4 years old when this conversation took place... all of us present during the conversation started laughing our butts off... Have you had an incident like this 1 where you actually get lost for words?

That's never happened to me. What the kid said, in 4 year old logic, makes sense to me. I'm surprised the mother was stumped. Remembering that insedent should have told her exactly what they were talking about.

I have a similar experience just like that but not same. when i was a sophomore student one day i got a temperary teaching job. during my fist class i asked all my students to repeat these new wirds i had told them a few minutes ago while one of those lovely kids standed up and gave me a suggestion. he said"can we play the game passing blackboard brush?" through his sincely eyes i found some pure things that i lost maybe all the adults had lost. i gave him the permission cause i didnt know how to refuse him and i also dodnt know why!
