And you can't just walk quickly away from a cab driver either! Ugh. We're not there yet so I can't really offer any advice but at least it gets better as they get older...right? As they learn about inside voices, whispering and keeping mean things to themselves. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-your-kid-shares-their-inner-monologue-with-others#post-2317570 Tue, 13 Oct 2015 11:08:00 +0000 Mamaof2 2317570@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: nothing (she was on her way outside) but I was mortified </p> <p>He has been in 1st grade for what 6 weeks?

Or as he puts it, "Dad, the driver is stinky!" Usually it's just the strong air freshener, but sometimes the cab driver is actually stinky. Argh, when that happens it makes me want to disappear into the backseat cushions!!</p> <p>Working to teach him that not all thoughts need to be expressed... but not sure the best way to phrase it.</p> <p>Anyone else dealing with kids that embarrass you with their very public observations? </p>
