So I was pooping just a few minutes ago and was reading the potty training book that's in there since James's daughter is two and is starting to do that sort of stuff. As I was reading it it was talking about the age of the child and when they can start potty training. They said between 24 and 30 months is usually a good time and a child over 36 months can usually do it in a weekend.
Then it mentioned something about a child over 48 months.
48 MONTHS!
That's four fucking years. I think I've bitched about this in my livejournal before, but why in the world do people tell the age of their kid in months? And when does it become acceptable to say, "Oh, he's eight years old." instead of, "Oh, he's 96 months old."
It's just convoluted, imo.

I think you should stop counting children's ages in months after the age of 2.

I started speaking recognizable words around 6 months, I think. GENIUS.
