Echolalia: the state in which a person repeats the vocalizations made by someone else.
I've done this since I was a kid with my brother Grant:
GRANT: Stop touching me!
ME: Stop touching me!
GRANT: I mean it, Madison. Leave me alone!
ME: I mean it, Madison. Leave me alone!
GRANT: You're stupid!
ME: You're stupid!
GRANT: You're crazy!
ME: You're crazy!
GRANT: I'm gonna tell!
ME: I'm gonna tell!
GRANT: MAMA!!!
ME: MAMA!!!
This would be funny, except I have two toddlers reaching this stage. Oh, the joy! ;-) I'm stopping by from the "A to Z" challenge and I look forward to reading more from you.
ReplyDeleteHi, Sylvia: I think all kids go through this stage. Sometimes they never outgrow it. LOL. Thanks for visiting. I read your blog, too. Inspirational and a fun read.

Happy E Day!
Hahaha, brilliant! It's so annoying to do that - which is possibly why I still do it, though it's with my kids, not my siblings. I'm an evil mum. ;p
ReplyDeleteHahaha yeah... no body did that with me for too long.
ReplyDeleteMe: Stop it.
Person: Stop it.
Me: No really.
Person: No really.
Me: I'm an asshole.
Person: ...
or
Person: I'm an asshole.
Me: Yes you are.
Person:...
Either way, I win. ^_^
Tara, Tundiel, Misha: Hello! Thanks for reading. Misha: I've pulled that one a few times with my little brother. Works like a dream. LOL.
