Yeah, crazy is not the explanation I'd give to my child no matter how old. Even if said in jest, you dont want that word hanging over your head, and over your child's life. you want them to grow up and mature with a strong sense of self. Say someone were to call you crazy for whatever reason, you just took away your daughter's ability to defend you, as well as probly raised a whole list of questions which said crazy person is probly not qualified to answer. 'crazy' in my book, was inappropriate...
