Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

The way to stop kids from using foul language or gestures is to tell them that they're out of fashion.  Tell her that "the finger" was only used by stupid people in the 1700s, and that if anybody uses it in public today they usually go straight to jail for being so boring and lame.

What if she sees Miley Cyrus giving someone the finger tomorrow? She'll never stop then!!!


Well, don't give her access to the Internet this week cause theirs a video circulating about Miley Cyrus smoking bong ... and don't watch TMZ either. (  Does anyone watch that btw ? )

Tell her about how the Boogieman will get her if she raises that finger, because it's a secret evil symbol.

You know, kind of like Candlejack. That way, she'll defini

No. She's already terrified at the boogieman. Plus, in Romanian the term for "boogieman" is "omul negru" which literally means "black man". Whenever she sees a black person on the street she gets scared. I don't want her acting anymore racist.

Daaaaaaawww, that's adorable. And racist. Make her a small KKK mask for Halloween.

I was playing poker with my 6-year-old sister, and she told me that she wanted 1 card, raising up a finger while telling me that. From my thread title I think it's pretty obvious which finger it was.

I told her to not do that, but she asked me "why not?". I then told her that it's not nice and appropriate to raise that finger, but that wasn't a good enough answer for her. Now, my sister's the type of evil kid that does exactly the opposite of what you tell her to, so she continued keeping that finger raised, and told me that she likes that finger and she won't stop 'till I tell her what it means.

Any advice on how to solve this?

Just tell what body part it represents.  That'll get her to stop.



Slap she in the face and leave her outside of the house during the night. See if she has the courage to do it again.

How about Cthulhu? 

Shouldn't give her nightmares....o.o;;;

O_o

That thing could give me nightmaires.

He's really a nice guy once you get to know him. :/ 

Fine....tell her that if she flips people off she'll turn into Cthulhu....

Cthulhu is horrible.

What that poor girl needs is Zork.

Wash her finger with soap - that'll teach her.


best comment ever :p

OT: I say you should ignore it she will forget about it eventually.



Rubangs point was the best, but to elaborate that.

Tell her it means that if you flip the finger it's admiting you like the smell of moudly feet.

If it's that much of a problem just break her finger. That'll stop her...

But in all seriousness, just don't react to it. She'll get bored after a couple of hours and just forget about it. If she asks what it means just don't reply, if she shoves it in your face just don't bat an eyelid. Kids thrive on attention for things like this.


Either that or just tell her it's a swear word.  I mean at six she should know what that means.

She probably knows what it means already anyway. I mean when I was six I understood what the British equivalent to the middle finger was (The same, but we use index finger as well)
. Chances are she knows it's swearing and taking full advantage of it.
