Having an engineer for a father, yes, I remember. It always ended with "Car Talk." /s

"DON'T DRIVE LIKE MY BROTHA"

Kids are honestly a vomitorium, though. They want to be listened to. IMO, the time for your input is when they ask for it, which is still often. The generational gap makes things just as awkward as not speaking.

Edit: This comment chain got really toxic for some reason

Kids are an entrance or exit passage in an ancient Roman amphitheatre or theatre?

Metaphorically, yes. They let a lot of things out. That's why it's called that. It means ""to spew forth. " (that's in your link)

People used to think it was a place where people vomited.

It means ""to spew forth. "

Aactually, it doesn't, but good of you to actually open the link and have a butcher's. "Vomere" means "to spew forth". "Vomitorium" is "vomere" + -"orium", meaning "place of."

yes, they go in and come out of the same place

But if they are the passage, then you'd be entering and exiting children, and that just sounds... wrong.
