Hey I'm studying child mental health and this is the question that I would like answered?

What goes on in a five year old's head when he says poopy ol' Jane for example. Why do they say this? I'm just curious.|||Well, the child knows why he's saying it, I can only guess here.





If "Poopy" is a word he says a lot, and to mean "mean" or "jerk" in adult talk, there may be a "Jane" in his life that he really doesn't like or, possibly Jane mistreats him, or possibly that tells him to do things he doesn't want to do (like a nanny would).





Anything that sounds odd, I would look into it further; maybe ask him "Who is "Poopy 'ol Jane?"


You'll be able to tell by the look on his face and his mannerisms if Jane is someone who makes him mad, who he fears, or, there's always the slight chance he has DID if he acts differently often.





Either way, I would check it out.|||A child's mental health depends on the parent/guardian and what they do . There is no natural way for all children to develop mental attitudes . It is all given to them or a result of their body development and the parent's reaction to it.|||Usually they just say stuff like that because it'd funny to them and it's fun saying.





If Jane is an actual person or something, than it's more than likely a joke that they just think is funny to say; like when they're called silly or something.|||Hey,


Have you tried this? My cousin found a cool site that helps with dreams, sexual stuff, and hair loss. There might be a topic for you to check out as well.|||They say it cause it is fun and funny. This is normal. Kids just wanna have fun. Motivations are pretty simple at 5 years old. Its us adults that try to read to much into it.|||My guess would be that the child is angry with Jane.....
