    [SIZE=10pt]Michael is driving us all crazy because he keeps mixing up opposites. When he says, "light on! light on!" He really means "light off, light off!" When he says up, he means down. When he says "help you" he really means "help me!"

    Dh is very confused. I just read him a book about opposites. I'm sure he'll get it eventually. In the meantime, is anyone else going through the "opposite factor?"

    my kids think everywhere is either home or church. We pull in somewhere they say, " We're home!" If we get in the van to go somewhere, "We're goin to church!"

    Sarah and Allison say off when they mean on, too. I have been really working on this, but they still haven't gotten it.

    My boys did that for a little bit but I kept working on it and they got it.

    My kids get school and home mixed up - probably not a good thing,right?

    What about "Carry You" when they mean them! :rotflmbo: It cracks me up!! It'll all work itself out. I just tell them the right way to say it and they get it eventually!!

    They will get it! My girls went through a period where they would say "Sit on my lap" if they wanted to sit on our laps. :D
