Those of you who hail from the mid-west and south are familiar with the term of endearment "stinker" or "little stinker". Used when a small child is
being impish.
Need to know the word and the age when the term would no longer be appropriate.
I'm guessing 62 years old is too old, right?DENNIS - 10-6-2013 at 12:53 PM

Dennis el travieso is right on!!!! oh and from experience I know that stinkers have no age limitvgabndo - 10-6-2013 at 01:19 PM
That's a good word to know. In the part of the south where my folks grew-up they used stinker, and "punkin-head". I was called "punkin" as a term of
endearment. Being unable to change my own diapers, I'm guessing stinker might have been more appropriate.bajabuddha - 10-6-2013 at 01:35 PM
TO DENNIS:
In high school, when my friend Joey Martinez would do something untoward (he was a little imp) his Abuela (Grandma) would call him "PENDEJO!"
TO SHARI:
Far's oldsters being stinkers, remember... over 60, NEVER TRUST A PEDO.DENNIS - 10-6-2013 at 01:47 PM

I hear the term chamacos for older kids and bago for babies. Not sure if this is accurate for your use because I'm not sure of the translation.
Universal language; but in Spanish it's Zorrillo

Especially if it's a boy, you'll hear a lot of Mexican mamis and papis use the term "escuincle", which usually comes out as "SQUEEEEEEENK-LAY!"BAJACAT - 10-7-2013 at 08:00 PM
