I routinely hear my children parroting back things that I've said:

When Erika (2) fell off her chair because she wasn't sitting properly, Jadzia (5) said "Erika, this is one of those 'no sympathy' situations!"

I can't remember what it was about, but Jadzia was watching Erika, and she sighed and said "Ah. They grow up so fast!"

Erika said something today, and I didn't quite hear it. I asked her what she said and she said "I have no idea what you're talking about."

Erika was upset because she'd dropped something on the floor, and Jadzia said "Erika, that's because of gravity. Get used to it."

My daughter Cara was told by DW to finish her veggies if she wanted ice cream later. DW then goes outside leaving Cara alone in kitchen, Im in living room.

Cara [screams]: "Daaaad!, when mom comes in is she gonna check the garbage!?"
Me: "Probably"
Cara [mutters]: "oh man!"

and thus she starts her own practice of "don't ask, don't tell."

I had my own experience, while traveling to Chicago with my eldest....I jokingly said something in a stereotypical chicagoan accent while driving with my son, he didn't say anything, so I asked, "haven't you heard a Chicago accent before?" to which he replied "yes, and it doesn't sound anything like that, so please don't do it..."

Then he was worried that he'd offended me and apologized profusely, but I applauded his honesty...he just didn't want me to embarrass myself (and by extension him...)

Sasha was watching the women's weight lifting, and there was a woman, I can't remember what country she was from, possibly China, who looked very masculine. VERY masculine.

"Muuuummm.... is that... a... girl?"
"Well, it is the women's weight lifting, so yes"
"Are you sure? I think that's a boy pretending to be a girl"
"Why do you say that?"
"She looks more like a boy than Daddy"
