Dad's Dictionary: KEAR TROUBLE

Kear Trouble = A fussy, angry, or upset Kear child. In order for this term to make more sense, you must remember that Kear is pronounced "Car." (It's the original Scottish pronunciation, and our branch still uses that pronunciation). The term "Kear Trouble" is usually used in the form of a question. For example, a 2 year old Kear descendent gets upset and throws a fit. In a gathering of Kears, someone will inevitably ask, "Are you having Kear Trouble?" To which the child most generally responds with even louder screams and wilder flailing of limbs.
