The photos were taken when my 4-year-old second son was 1 year old. He speaks a little differently than other small children.

For example, when he doesn't like daycare, he doesn't say, "I don't want to go to daycare!" . Instead, he says, "I think I'll take the day off today." This morning he said, "I think it's time to quit daycare" ... No, no, no, you still have to go there for two more years yet.

And the same goes for if he has somewhere want to go. Last Friday, on our way home from daycare, we were talking about what we were going to do on Saturday and Sunday.

He wanted to go to an Internet cafe. At this time, he didn't say "I want to go to an Internet cafe!" or "Take me there!". He said

"I think I will go to an Internet café tomorrow".

He made it sound as if he was going to go there alone, which blew me away.

When his friend lashes out at him at daycare, he doesn't talk back, but keeps quiet.

I asked,

"Why? Why don't you talk back?"

He replied,

"No, I just ignore people like that."

"You don't like it, do you?"

I asked.

"Well, I have received 1 damage"

He said.

Like this, my second son does not speak in a way that brings his emotions to the forefront. His daycare teacher once told me that, too. She said, "Please give him lots of praise at home so he can show more and more emotion!". From the way she said that, she may not think my second son's way of speaking is good. Moreover, it sounded as if my son was suppressing his emotions because I did not praise him, which was a bit rude🤣 I think I praise my child quite a bit... (I don't really care about that because the teacher has a bad way of saying things and often offends the parents).

I don't know why my second son speaks this way, but I like the way he speaks. It is much easier to understand than my older son's way of speaking (and probably mine too), which is a mixture of facts and emotions.

I also liked the expression "I have received 1 damage". If something bad happens to me in the future, I will imitate my second son and say, "I have received 1 damage". I think it would be much less damaging to follow my second son's example rather than complaining about the incident.

写真は現在4歳の次男が、1歳の頃に撮ったものです。次男の話し方は、ちょっと変わっています。

例えば、保育園がイヤな時。「保育園やだー」「行きたくない~」と言うのではなく、

「今日は保育園休もうかな」

と言います。今朝は、

「そろそろ保育園やめようかな」

と言っていましたが・・・ いやいや、一応あとまだ2年あるんだよ。

また、どこか行きたいところがある場合。先々週の金曜日、保育園からの帰り道、土日に何をしようかと話していた時のことです。次男はインターネットカフェに行きたかった様子。この時も、「ネットカフェに行きたい!」「連れてってー!」と言うのではなく、

「明日はネットカフェに行こうかな」

と言っていました。まるで自分一人で行くかのような言い方w


保育園でお友達に暴言を吐かれても、言い返さずに黙っているそうです。

「どうして?言い返したら?」

と私が言うと、

「いや、そういう奴は放っとく」

と言います。

「言われっぱなしでイヤじゃない?」

と訊くと

「まあ、1ダメージくらってしまうんだけどね」

とのこと。くらってるのかw


こんな感じで、次男は自分の感情を前面に出した話し方をしません。

保育園の先生にもそれは言われたことがあって、面談では「もっともっと感情が出てくるように、お家でもいっぱい褒めてあげてくださ~い!」と言われました。その言い方から察するに、先生は次男の話し方を良いとは思っていないのかもしれません。しかも、私が次男を褒めないから本人が感情を封じ込めているかのような言い方で、それはちょっと失礼では(笑)その先生は言い方が悪くて度々保護者を怒らせることがあるので、あまり気にしていませんが。

どうして次男がこのような話し方をするのかは分かりませんが、私は次男の話し方が好きです。事実と感情がごっちゃになった長男の話し方(そして多分、私もそう)よりも、ずっと分かりやすいですし。

それから「1ダメージくらってしまった」という表現も、いいなと思いました。何かイヤなことがあったら、今後は私も次男を真似て「1ダメージくらってしまった」と言うようにしよう。ああだこうだ毒づくよりも、その方がずっとダメージが少なそうです。

Personally, I want to share what I think about your son's way of speaking. He's smart! I mean, not every kid has the ability to express their thoughts and what they feel in such a witty way. He sounds adorable to me. 🤗

Thank you! I hope you are right✨The teacher at the daycare is worried because he speaks differently from the other kids (like an old man 😂)

I don't think I need to change the way he speaks👍

hahaha. I have received 1 damage. I like that. It makes me think of RPG games. If we looked at the world more like Dragon Quest, we might have a better time.

You remind me of one of my oldest son's strange habits. For many years when he wanted people to wait a minute, instead of saying ちょっと待って or some variation of that, he would say in English "pause!". It was always cute.

Thank you. Sure, it's Dragon Quest-ish! My son loves Splinterlands, so maybe he associates it with card games😉

It's so cute how little kids say and say the wrong things. There are so many things in childcare that we can only hear and see at that age.

ありがとうございます🤣

「ダメージくらってるんじゃん!」と言ったら、「え、1ダメージだけだよ?」と言っていたので、本人もやっぱりダメージ少ないと思っているみたいです。
