What rhymes with funny?

Aiden got in trouble for swearing at school. He tells me it was a complete accident while he and his friends were playing a rhyming game. He had to find rhyming words for “chuck it”. I almost peed I laughed so hard. Parenting at its best.

So, being the kind of parents we are, Marc and I spent most of dinner telling him what other words he should be very careful with when it came to rhyming. Pluck, duck, gas, lit, fit….you get the idea. We thought making light of the situation would be better than punishing him for his mistake. Not so sure that was the wisest thing to do as dinner ended with these words.

“Mom, do I have to eat my plucking vegetables?”
