I often heard this from my Grandmother. I also heard, "Little pitchers have big ears."


What sort of idioms do you hear growing up?

We heard the same things. When I spanked my kids I would tell them, "This is not going to hurt me a bit but it will hurt you."

Crap in one hand and dream in the other, and which one always fills up first? (Only we didn't use the work crap.)

Women should be obscene not heard.

My fav in that line was on women from my Dad.

well to know my dad i'll give you small amount of information on him. when they found out i was born with a birth defect, he immediately had a vasectomy as to prevent having any more broken babies. this was not kept a secret from me. i feel that his reason should DEFINITELY not have been told to me. because i've always known my mom wanted 2 more kids and my dad was like this one is defective. we're not having more defective babies. not_talking

That sucks pretty bad, you were used as an excuse, and worse yet they told you I take it repeatedly.

In the end though for the sake of our own peace of mind, you have to let it go and just realize he too was defective, only in a different way.

my dad yelling my name.

always amazed me how I could hear my dads voice even if I was blocks away from my house playing with friends




Yeah we didn't need cell phones back then. My dad would shout our names and it was like hearing distant thunder. Even if we didn't hear it, our friends would and tell us.

well to know my dad i'll give you small amount of information on him. when they found out i was born with a birth defect, he immediately had a vasectomy as to prevent having any more broken babies. this was not kept a secret from me. i feel that his reason should DEFINITELY not have been told to me. because i've always known my mom wanted 2 more kids and my dad was like this one is defective. we're not having more defective babies. not_talking


That sucks pretty bad, you were used as an excuse, and worse yet they told you I take it repeatedly.

In the end though for the sake of our own peace of mind, you have to let it go and just realize he too was defective, only in a different way.


very well said Hyper

Yeah. VERY common to hear, from one of us to another when playing in someone's yard, "Hey X, your dad's calling you."
