Last night at supper, JT said a word Jersey-style. I was so shocked to discover that my son cannot pronounce "-ton" properly that the resulting PTSD blocked the word he (mis) pronounced right out of my head.
Clearly, intervention is in order or soon he will be waiting on line, going food shopping, and heading to the shore for weekends.
Saturday morning update: JT has just asked to watch Martin Mystery......but he completely skipped the 't' in pronouncing Martin.....as in Mar'in. Where have I gone wrong?

The second D starts saying home in that south of Provinceline accent, I'm packing him off for boarding school.
"Youse," on the other hand, is fully approved in informal settings.
