Freddy Woo writes, "My wife thinks calling the front room a lounge is common. Worse, a friend of hers recently admonished her daughter for calling a toilet, a toilet. Lavatory darling. It's lavatory."
My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

Responsible parenting this aint!
Not punishing your kid because you don't want any flack and don't want to somehow punish yourself is unbeleivable.
I understand the whole "kids are gonna do it anyway" attitude some parents have, but this takes it too far
