My friends will continue to intentionally and enthusiastically mis-use all the kid-pidgin as a form of sarcastic performance art, as it has so far achieved the main goal of embarrassing their two girls into never using any of it. They speak like people, instead of vapid 'gram zombies; at least at home.
Speak to your kids like little adults and their speech and vocabulary explodes. They also sense the respect that many adults don’t give them. I loathe adults that talk down to children.
Yes! Treat them as ignorant, not stupid. Asked my ex-wife why kids like me when I’m don’t like them so much. “You talk to them like real people. They get that.”
I’m trying, but they think I’m in the joke and love it. thought id get ahead and use it so they will cringe, but it backfired. now my house uses the 67 joke unironically

I do this too. I’ll come home and say “heyyy 6-7-8 my bruhs!” and their eyes will roll right out of their skulls.
