Just an FYI for those of you who will be around us when we get home.
One of Robbie's favorite things to say is "da"
We have learned that in Chinese this means "hit"
We do not want to encourage this word so if he says this to you please do not repeat it to him. As we made the mistake of doing this early in the week. And be aware that is word may come with a swinging arm, especially if he is upset or not liking what is going on. If that is the case please just grab his hand and firmly tell him "No!"
We have been working on this all week and it is getting better. But we wanted to give everyone a fair warning and try not to encourage this from him.
We have found that a lot of these children have some aggression to work out.
Thank you very much for your cooperation in this matter.
Precious little guy, he'll get over it. You are so good with him and teaching him the right things to do. What a precious little boy!! Blessings
ReplyDeleteOne more word you need to be aware of is "bu" (boo) - it means "no." Peek-a-boo is a no-no game unless you exchange the "boo" for something else!
