Sometimes kids say the 'dardnest' thangs.. (quote from Art Linkletter here).. If you old enough to remember Art AND remember Alfalfa, from 'Our Gang.'..and "ALF" then you'll appreciate this tiny story...
My 9 year old said the kids at school were calling him "Alfalfa" , and 'why would they call him a plant ??"... So I tried to explain to him that plants have many qualities, etc. but that was NOT why they were calling him that, and proceeded to google "Alfalfa" and showed him who the kid was. His 'HAIR STICKING STRAIGHT UP' That got him the name, because our son has had hair like that since he was a baby, it just sticks straight up, unless you put some detangling cream or something in it every morning.
So then I showed him "ALF"... and he laughed at our space alien friends looks.... So when they call him "Alfalfa'., and can shoot back with "ALF"..
YES, I explained to him that name calling is NOT a good thing and they were making fun of him, and he knows its all in jest.... so... let THEM google "ALF".. LOL
Have a Blessed Day !!

Don't you just LOVE kids. Your little one sounds like he can be a lot of fun to be around. I'm glad you showed him how to handle that negativity. Good Job Mom!
You just tell your son that one day, he'll wish people would still call him "Alfalfa". Most men are deprived of that honor as their age advances and their hairlines recede! :)
