Oops! He did it again!
Elkan who is so cute in my eyes can be very naughty in other people’s views. He was being complained by the teacher several times for mis-behaving in class and he did it again this week.. The crime? He called someone “fatty”… Well, to be honest, the girl ( yes, its a girl) is his classmate and really a bit on the heavy side.. (fat lah!) Of course I really gave him a hard time in front of the teacher, to make the promise not to use that word again.. Hubby and my BIL used this word sometimes when playing.. Like, ” See, daddy is a fatty bom bom!” or “Uncle Fabian is a fatty!” The men would laugh at themselves with such remarks.. But I guess, it is hurting when the comment is directed at a small girl.. Teacher said that the mother in question was very angry and upset that her precious gal is being called a fatty.. Elkan was confused intially when told that it is a “bad” word to use.. “But she is really fat!” he replied.. So I told him that it is very hurting and will make the girl very sad.. Then he promised not to call her fatty.. But, he is actually making an accurate observation right?
