[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 647068, member: 14557"] :D This nicely expresses why I don't see any problem with G.F.G (I do with P.C, but I mostly translate it to Political correct child in my head ;)) I come from the culture, where children, even very young ones, are only called 'dear', 'sweetheart', 'honey' or any that type of endearing, when they have just caused an epic scene in supermarket, parent is beet red from embarrassment, would willingly give the kid away to any passing stranger without any background checks, have fume pouring from their ears, that is when that mom or dad will come up with: "Darling, would you please be dear and climb down from that lady's shopping cart, I think we have to find a staff member and tell about that stand you just pushed over." Or when they are little older: "Guess what, my little sweetheart just keeps offering us new exiting experiences. I had never been in the drunk tank before we picked him up last Sunday 1 a.m. Really interesting!" When we are little less upset with our offspring, or more so, happy with them, we tend to call them and refer them with words, that have '(informal, derogative)' added after them in dictionary. :D [/QUOTE]
