[QUOTE="everywoman, post: 231751, member: 1436"] Terry, she's 19. She just doesn't get metaphorical language. I think it's genetic. husband's sister is the same way. It's some sort of verbal deficiency. Not sure what. They even make up their own words or mix up worlds---sound like the real thing---but not. For instance, when she had surgery her first knee surgery a few years ago, she asked me to ask the dr. if he was going to prescribe "deflammatory" pills. My sister in law was taking her daughter through McD's drive through, ordered a value meal, and then told them to circumcise it. Niece was 15 at the time and mortified. They know it is wrong after they say it, and can laugh about it, but it happens all the time. [/QUOTE]
