They Mocked Me In Eight Languages, So I Left

My son inherited my husband’s language talent.

At just six years old, he was already fluent in eight languages.

He and his father would often chat in foreign languages right in front of me.

Today, while we were walking through the mall, my son pointed at my stomach and said in German,

"Mama, der Bauch ist groß."

(Mom’s belly is so big.)

My husband smiled and replied in French,

"On peut mettre un cochon."

(We could fit a pig inside.)

My son doubled over laughing, mocking me in Italian,

"La mamma è un maiale."

(Mom is a pig anyway.)
