Conversation from the weekend:

DH: (says something about to DS7 not walking on the furniture in in-laws living room)
DS7: I am walking on the furniture (he walks on the carpet)
DH: The carpet is not a piece of furniture
DS7: In my language, a carpet is considered furniture

This triggers a long discussion between DH and DS about why we need a common language to understand each other - with DH arguing for this concept, and DS arguing against. (As well as other family members debating whether carpeting can be considered in the category 'furniture').

Me: (tries to quietly read novel while ignoring the chaos)
