how many times?
I was contemplating the other day how often parents say their kids names. Then I began to wonder what the actual number of times a parent says their child's name. Please feel free to guess in the comments link at the bottom of this post. So if you care to venture a guess here are the rules: the time period is from when the child is in the womb to when it turns 18, and the name only counts when the parents is referencing the child or talking to the child. my guess is 350,000 times.

As there are about 6600 days in 18 years, my guess would be somewhat less than 350,000.There are days when I may only say my childs name 6 or 8 times, and others when it might get up as high as 20 or 30. Funny how I'm only really thinking of my male child for this question. At any rate my guess would be around 140,000. I'll start counting now, and after the next 8 years I'll let you know.
