When I was a barman, I stood by polishing a glass as a couple had a hushed argument two feet away about what they were going to do now she was pregnant. The bloke promised to leave his wife, but subsequent hushed arguments revealed that he did not. What have you overheard?

This is a slightly tenuous link to the question, but since it happened a couple of weeks ago, I just had to tell someone.
I was walking through town one day and got to a set of traffic lights. While I was waiting for the light to turn green and signal my advance, I noticed that to the right of me was a lovely young family. There was a mum, a dad, a baby in a pram and a little kid that couldn't have been more than 3 or 4.
The little kid was holding onto his dad's hand (or rather, a couple of his fingers), like a good boy does, but with his free hand started to pat his dad's stomach, saying (in what you can imagine is a cute 4-year-old's voice) "heee, you've got a big fat belly!".
It was amusing, it made me smirk somewhat, but clearly the dad wasn't amused. He turned around, looked down at his Son, paused for a brief second and retorted with "...You're a twat!".

My daughters do that to me all the time. But I believe in being honest with the little
I was not so sanguine when a friend's son looked at me wide-eyed and said, "You've got boobies!"

Though I'd like to think I may also tell them that last time mommy had a belly like mine they popped out.
I currently look about 8 months gone so if I had kids I could get away with it I'm sure.

Number 1 son (aged about 3, at the time) offered this advice: "You should say fucking hell, to him. That's what daddy does."
Oops.
